There are 4 luns emcpower29e,emcpower30a,emcpower33a,emcpower34b which is require to initilize it and add them to the VRP_PRD_ora_data_dg diskgroup to increase filesystem to 20 GB more.
Shall I have to proceed with the disk initilization in vxvm without labeling it or Please help me to proceed step by step activities required for this.
Thanks,
