NOTES

Some of the tkadmin commands that affect logical volumes, physical volumes, disks, and mirrors have restricted usage. Certain commands are for use on the AIX operating system only, and others are not to be used on the AIX operating system. Any usage restrictions are noted on the individual command reference pages.

The AIX operating system supports logical volumes. Thus, the Encina concept of logical volumes is redundant. Encina can use either the logical volumes supported by the AIX operating system or Encina logical volumes (using disks and physical volumes). Encina provides a set of commands for each approach.

PRIVILEGE REQUIRED

To issue tkadmin commands, you must have sufficient permissions to administer the specified Toolkit server. Required permissions are listed on each command reference page.
