NAME [Toc] [Back]
vxconfig - VERITAS Volume Manager configuration device
SYNOPSIS [Toc] [Back]
/dev/vx/config
DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
The vxconfig device is the interface through which all changes to the
volume driver state are performed in VERITAS Volume Mananger (VxVM).
This device can only be opened by one process at a time. The initial
volume configuration is downloaded into the kernel through this
device. The vxconfigd process updates the configuration through this
device. The vxconfigd process was designed to be the sole and
exclusive owner of this device. As such, the ioctl interface between
vxconfigd and the device is considered an internal interface and is
not documented here.
