I have a few disks SAN connected, how do I scan and list them in the format cxtydz

I have a HP-UX box, connected to a jbod on SAN.
I want to list all the disks accesible.
Earlier I have VxVM and I could see the disks using vxdiskadd list. But now after uninstalling it, I'm not able to list them.

I tried using ioscan -C disk, but I want something closer to cxtydz format.
Thanks in adv.

In some situations you may have to boot.

Try insf -e

ioscan -fnC disk

Then you should be able to use pvcreate to prepare the disks.

pvcreate -f /dev/dsk/c1t1d0
