Disabling quorum

Hello all,

I'm trying to get my two volume groups of local disk
drives mirrored via logical volume copies, and I'm not
sure I'm getting it right. The two volume groups are
rootvg and apps_vg. Each vg has two 36 gig drives, and
I want the drives to mirror each other. I've disabled
the quorum on them using the following commands:

chvg -Qn rootvg
chvg -Qn apps_vg

I've used the mklvcopy command to copy each logical
volume to the other disk and then used 'syncvg -v' on
each vg to synchonize them.

I've tried physically removing one drive from the
apps_vg volume group, and when I did, the whole vg
went down. What step(s) am I missing? I went to IBM's
AIX documentation and found a section on 'Nonquorum
Volume Groups', but it doesn't give the steps to make
it happen.

Can anyone help me out here?

Thanks!

-Stephen Spalding
