Changing Veritas device owner for raw device

len | 18 December, 2008 20:03

Today I had to set the owner/group for a Veritas raw device. You can set it on Unix using chown, but the settings will be lost after a reboot. To properly set the ownership on a veritas raw device you need the following command:

vxedit set user=username group=groupname mode=modenumber volumename

So in my case I did a

vxedit set user=informix group=informix mode=0660 rootdbs
