LVM or VXVM?
What type of disk array? EMC, clarion, XP, ...

[AwadheshPandey]

ioscan -fnCdisk to get disk name(SYMMETRIX|DGC|DISK-SUBSYSTEM|OPEN-E*5) etc
use diskinfo /dev/rdsk/c4t1d0 to get disk size


pvcreate /dev/rdsk/c4t1d0

mkdir /dev/vgnew
mknod /dev/vgnew/group c 64 0x020000


vgcreate vgnew /dev/dsk/c4t1d0
man vgcreate
lvcreate -L 512 -n lvolname vgnew
man lvcreate
newfs -F vxfs /dev/vgnew/rlvolname
man newfs

use manpage to see various options.
