Volumes in a disk group start automatically irrespective of the value of the StartVolumes attribute in VCS

Volumes in a disk group are started automatically when the disk group is imported, irrespective of the value of the StartVolumes attribute in VCS. This behavior is observed if the value of the system-level attribute autostartvolumes in Veritas Volume Manager is set to On.

Workaround: If you do not want the volumes in a disk group to start automatically after the import of a disk group, set the autostartvolumes attribute to Off at the system level.
