Hi,

Also can have a look at the NExt Generation Mass Storage Stack and the Rear Sections of Whwn good Disks Go Bad.

They are also a good place to start to.

Here are the links.

Okay but those assume knowledge of the previous versions of HP UX. Which I don't have.

I need a tutorial that describes it from the ground up.

Hi Mike,

if you're new to Unix, it may be worthwhile to take some of the HP-UX classes that are available. Most of them seem to be available remotely with live instructors, so you can ask questions while you go. Also includes labs.

Hi, actually I'm not new to Unix, been a Unix SA for many years, but primarily Redhat and haven't worked with HP-UX in a long time, don't remember the LVM/disk management stuff.

Actually, on all HP-UX distros, /opt/ssh/COPYRIGHT.sftpfilecontrol is my puppy.

Sort of funny how I've got something distributed with HP, but didn't have access to it until last week.

Hi Michael,

I assume the best place to start for LVM as already said would be this one as my choice .

http://www.docs.hp.com/en/5992-4589/

this discusses the LVM Introduction, configuration and administration that on 11iv3
