How to check partitions on Integrity HP-UX

[Todd Bowden]

To all,

I have been doing some reading and here is what I have come up with so far. I just setup a new HP-UX 11.31 and noticed that the root disk is /dev/disk/disk5_p2 which I found is for HP-UX and then there are Slice 1 and Slice 3. If I want to add a mirrored drive I want to make sure that Slice 1 and Slice 2 are the same size. So take for instance I dont know what the size is of those partions. Is there a way to find out what the actual size is of those Slices?

I have seen "examples" of partitioning a drive, which looks like the following.

3
EFI 500MB
HPUX 100%
HPSP 400MB

The documentation says this is an example, so I want to know for sure what the size was that was used on the original disk. How do I find that out?

Thanks in advance,

Todd

Hi,

Meaning of this lines
3
EFI 500MB
HPUX 100%
HPSP 400MB

The first entry specifies the number of partitions to create that is 3.
The second specifies an EFI partition of 500 megabytes.
Next entry specifies a HPUX partition consisting of all the remaining space on the disk after the EFI partition has been created.
Tha last is specifies one HPSP partition of 400MB.

Hi,

Just use diskinfo .

# ioscan -fnCdisk
