Links to the manuals are your best source. Without that I would suggest you look at the man pages from the UNIX command line starting with "man lvm"

[Patrick Wallek]

Typical LVM commands:

pvcreate

pvchange

pvdisplay

vgcreate

vgreduce

vgextend

vgchange

vgdisplay

lvcreate

lvextend

lvreduce

lvsplit

lvmerge

lvchange

lvdisplay

For more information on the commands, see the man page for each.

For example:  man lvdisplay

and locate

HP-UX System Administrator's Guide: Logical Volume Management HP-UX 11i v3 (B3921-90053 September 2011) Transform used: ESS version 2.2

This is a must have.
