Obtaining Information

Removing one physical disk and placing it elsewhere, causing the physical disk
name to change

Recovery from the above mentioned cases is not possible, except by falling back to the
original configuration. In short, any operation that results in either changing the
physical volume name or changing the VDP name should not be performed.

Obtaining Information

Both COUP and PUP commands are used to obtain information about SMF processes,
storage pools, virtual disks, and physical volumes.
