Hammer & Screwdriver Maybe pointing you in the correct direction?

For hp-ux, you would have
pvcreate to create the physical volume
vgcreate to create the volume group
lvcreate to create the logical volume (or your mount point)

I seem to recall AIX as
mkdev
mkvg
mklv

So, take a look at mklv command.


The following link has a good cross-reference, so if you know a command for one unix flavor, it would point you to the associated command for a different unix flavor (or system type).
