|

|
|
<div><p>To access the disk units in an independent disk pool, you must
|
||
|
|
make the disk pool available (vary it on).</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>To access the disk units in an independent disk pool and the
|
||
|
|
objects in the corresponding database, you must make the disk pool available
|
||
|
|
(vary it on). If you are using geographic mirroring, you must make the production
|
||
|
|
copy of the disk pool available. You can only make the mirror copy available
|
||
|
|
if it is detached. For a geographically mirrored disk pool, you must also
|
||
|
|
make sure that the switchable hardware group is <a href="rzalystartcrg.htm">started</a> before attempting to make the disk pool available
|
||
|
|
unless geographic mirroring is suspended.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>In a multisystem clustered environment, you can make the disk pool available
|
||
|
|
to the current node or to another node in the cluster. The independent disk
|
||
|
|
pool can only be varied on for one node at a time. When you want to access
|
||
|
|
the independent disk pool from a different node, you must switch the independent
|
||
|
|
disk pool to the backup cluster node. See <a href="../rzaig/rzaigmanageperformswitchover.htm">Perform a switchover</a> for details on switching a device
|
||
|
|
CRG (referred to as a switchable hardware group in iSeries™ Navigator) to the backup node.</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> If you make a primary or secondary disk pool available, all of the disk
|
||
|
|
pools in the disk pool group are also made available at the same time.</div>
|
||
|
|
<p>When you make a disk pool available or perform
|
||
|
|
disk configuration changes on an independent disk pool, processing can seem
|
||
|
|
to stop. If you are doing other device description activity, then make available
|
||
|
|
and disk configuration changes will wait. </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Failures early in make available processing
|
||
|
|
of a geographically mirrored disk pool might cause a full synchronization
|
||
|
|
on the next make available or resume.</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="p">To make an independent disk pool available: <ol><li>In iSeries Navigator,

expand <span class="uicontrol">My Connections</span> (or your active environment). </li>
