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).

Dear Gurus,
Could it be possible to have the output of df -k sorted? The df -k output messed up after recent power trip.
Also, is there any folders that I should look into to reduce the root size (other than /var/adm and /var/crash) after server crash?
Many thanks in advance.

vgremove
vgremove(1M) vgremove(1M)
NAME
vgremove - remove LVM volume group definition from the system
SYNOPSIS
vg_name ...
Remarks
If a combination of volume groups version 1.0 and 2.0 or higher arguments are supplied, then the arguments might not be processed in the
order they are listed on the command line.
DESCRIPTION
The command removes from the system the last physical volume of the volume group and the definition of the volume group or groups specified
by vg_name .... Since all system knowledge of the volume group and its contents are removed, the volume group can no longer be accessed.
To move a volume group from one system to another, use the command instead (see vgexport(1M)).
Before executing remove all logical volumes residing on the last physical volume by executing (see lvremove(1M)).
Before removing a volume group, two steps are necessary:
1. Remove all the logical volumes belonging to the group by using the command (see lvremove(1M)).
2. Remove all but one physical volume belonging to the volume group by using the command (see vgreduce(1M)).
If there is any physical volume group created under vg_name ..., the physical volume group information is also removed from file
Options and Arguments
recognizes the following option and argument:
For each volume group removed, also
remove its volume group directory and file
vg_name The path name of a volume group.
