Re: Understand the Autoraid configuration
The AutoRAID doesn't know or care about filesystems. Free filesystem space or unallocated VG space is meaningless to the array. The only thing that matters to an AutoRAID is how disk space is allocated as LUN's and how much space is left free.
To get meaningful data, execute arraydsp -i to get the arrayid then execute arraydsp -a arrayid.
The AutoRAID always keeps at least 10% of the total space as RAID 1/0 and tries to maintain as much as possible in RAID 1/0. If you never allocate more than 50% of your array's capacity as LUN's then the array will be fully RAID 1/0. It's not possible to say that LUN0 occupies Disks1 1B, 2A, and 3B, for example, because the layout is dynamic.

If it ain't broke, I can fix that.

Re: Understand the Autoraid configuration
You are going to have to use tools that look at the AutoRaid itself to determine how the data is laid out. If I recall correctly you can see the configuration of the AutoRaid with the 'arraydsp' command.
With the AutoRaid units though, you can not directly control whether the data is in RAID 5 or RAID10. The AutoRaid itself controls that. It determines that automatically. Now depending on how much of the AutoRaid disks are used for Luns and how much data you have you could have all data in RAID 10, all data in RAID 5 or some combination thereof.
