Create LV on second disk
Hi Everyone
I am in the process of configuring a C3000 machine to which I have installed the HP-UX 11i V1 OS. The machine contains two hard disks.
1) QUANTUM Atlas4-9LVD 8678 Mbytes Unused
2) SEAGATE ST39103LC 8678 Mbytes LVM
The OS is loaded on the second disk as the Volume Group vg00 (default LV's as created buy the OS install).
1) How do I go about mounting the QUANTUM drive to examine what it contains?
2) Can I create an lvol9 on this drive as ‘/space' for example taking up the whole drive?
3) If the QUANTUM drive proves unusable from which of the lvol1 - lvol8 can I rob space to create my ‘/space' partition on the SEAGATE?
4) Can I do all the above in SAM?
Thanks
Ed

SYNOPSIS

drive.
The default action is to volcheck all checkable media managed by volume management.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-i secs Set the frequency of device checking to secs seconds. The default is 2 seconds. The minimum frequency is 1 second.
-t secs Check the named device(s) for the next secs seconds. The maximum number of seconds allowed is 28800, which is 8 hours. The fre-
quency of checking is specified by -i. There is no default total time.
-v Verbose.
OPERANDS
The following operands are supported:
pathname The path name of a media device.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: A sample of the volcheck command.
The following example

asks Volume Management to examine the floppy drive for new media.
The following example
example% volcheck -i 2 -t 600 /dev/diskette1 &

WARNINGS
Due to a hardware limitation in many floppy drives, the act of checking for media causes mechanical action in the floppy drive. Continu-
ous polling of the floppy drive will cause the drive to wear out. It is recommended that polling the drive only be performed during periods
of high use.
