Solaris Commands Interview Question:

What is the difference between private and public regions in Veritas Volume manager?

Submitted by: Administrator

Private Region: It has meta data regarding the disk. A
copy of the configuration database is copied to each
private region with the disk group. It keeps 5 copies of
the configuration database. It is configured as slice 3.
Once the private region is created it cannot be changed.
Public region: This is the area where all users' data is
stored. Usually it is configured as slice 4.
