Hi,

We have HP-UX B.11.23 U ia64 server, below single lun we have created two logical partitions.

disk 4 0/3/1/0.1.2.255.0.0.1 sdisk CLAIMED DEVICE HITACHI DF600F
/dev/dsk/c6t0d1 /dev/rdsk/c6t0d1

Like: /prod1, /prod2

What do you mean ?

You can use below command to have a detailed distribution list on your disk.

# pvdisplay -v /dev/dsk/c6t0d1 |more

The question is not clear to me ...

How about "diskinfo"?

Hi Mastan,

Are you new to HPUX? Which volume manager is used in your server, LVM or VXVM?

The terms "logical partitions" and "disk information for /prod1 and /prod2" are really confusing.

As you said earlier, disk is only one, so to see the information about your disk you can run

diskinfo /dev/rdsk/c6t0d1

If you are looking for volume sizes of logical volumes & if lvm, you should use, vgdisplay & lvdisplay commands with appropriate options to see your volume details.

Similarly if volume manager is vxvm there are commands like vxprint which can give you the volume related information.

command "bdf" will help you to get mounted filesystem details

Clear details will help to get the resolution faster.
