Use this page to understand what a volume group is and the steps involved for configuring a volume group.
The Create Volume Group wizard guides you
through the creation of a volume group, which you can optionally include
in an existing resource group. A volume group is
a collection of one or more logical volumes.
You can manage volume
groups in PowerHA® SystemMirror as
