You can create any convention for the label names. For example, if a site consists of
12 Fibre Channel drives, you can use CvfsDisk[n] for each label name. Replace [n]
with a decimal number starting at 0 and increment the number for each drive. In this case,
the label name entries in the file would be: CvfsDisk0, CvfsDisk1, CvfsDisk2, and
so on. For example:
Step 5 After the cvlabels file is complete, use the cvlabel command to label the disk drives.
# cd /usr/cvfs/bin
# ./cvlabel
Follow the on-screen instructions to label the disk drives.
# AIX Example
# Drives 0 through 11 will be used for Regular Stripe Groups,
# so the entire volumes are used (total sector sizes are used
# since optional sector sizes are not specified).
#
# Regular file disks - use entire volume
