How to create new logical volumes on same disk?

[Gulam Mohiuddin]

Need to create two new logical volumes of 4 GB each on the same disk.
The disk has already one logical volume but lots of free space/PE.

pvdisplay -v /dev/dsk/c6t0d2

--- Physical volumes ---
PV Name /dev/dsk/c6t0d2
VG Name /dev/vg01
PV Status available
Allocatable yes
VGDA 2
Cur LV 2
PE Size (Mbytes) 4
Total PE 8629
Free PE 6679
Allocated PE 1950
Stale PE 0
IO Timeout (Seconds) default
Autoswitch On

--- Distribution of physical volume ---
LV Name LE of LV PE for LV
/dev/vg01/lvol22 1875 1875
/dev/vg01/lvol36 75 75

--- Physical extents ---

Thanks,

Gulam.

TO create logical volumen use lvcreate command

lvcreate -n newlvol /dev/vg01
lvextend -L 4000 /dev/vg01/newlvol /dev/dsk/c6t0d2

man lvcreate and lvextend for more.

lvcreate -L 4096 -n (logical volume name) vg01

newfs -F vxfs /dev/vgXX/rlvolXX

Hi

To create a logical volume on a particular disk is

#vcreate -n lvol_name /dev/vgxx

#lvextend -L xxxx/dev/vgxx/lvol_name /dev/dsk/cxtxdx

#lvdisplay /dev/vgxx/lvol_name (to confirm )
