hi,

That is too less info to respond to.
Firstly, why not VXFS filesystem?? It gives
you better options than HFS.

Anyway, to create a filesystem:
figure out on which VG you need to create it.
Create a LV in that VG:
lvcreate -L -n lvname /dev/vgname

Create the filesystem for the LV,
newfs -F hfs /dev/vgname/rlvname

To use it, you need to create a mountpoint
mkdir /xyz/abc
and mount it
mount -F hfs /dev/vgname/lvname /xyz/abc

Hi,

Simply use SAM (Disks and File Systems) to create a Logical Volume. Modify filesystem defaults to select HFS. It should work fine unless you want to be more specific on what disk(s) you want to create the logical volume on, etc.

That shouldn't be a problem, providing you have the disk space. And you can do it all from sam.

RajMan,

I've come across a few pieces of software, one like syncsort, that does not play well with vxfs, so you have to take three steps back and use HFS.
