| Vary a disk volume online or offline | System or operator |
To perform maintenance on a disk volume or to upgrade disk hardware, you can vary a disk volume offline. For example, to vary the disk volume named adsm/storage/pool001 offline, enter:
vary offline adsm/storage/pool001
If ADSM encounters a problem with a disk volume, the server automatically varies the volume offline.
You can make the disk volume available to the server again by varying the volume online. For example, to make the disk volume named adsm/storage/pool001 available to the server, enter:
vary online adsm/storage/pool001
