• lvdisplay -v
• lvlnboot -v
• vxdg list (VxVM and CVM)
• vxprint (VxVM and CVM)
These are standard HP-UX commands. See their man pages for
information of specific usage. The commands should be issued from all
nodes after installing the hardware and rebooting the system. The
information will be useful when doing storage group and cluster
configuration. A printed listing of the output from the lssf command
can be marked up to indicate which physical volume group a disk should
be assigned to.
