You gotta know onto which Volume Group (vg) you want to place it, if you want to mirror it and how large it should be.
Then you have to create a Logical Volume (lv) and on top of it a filesystem (fs). Here an example for a LV with 1 copy (no mirror) of type "jfs2" with lv_ora11 as LV name placed on "somevg" using 12 Physical Partitions. How large 1 Phsyical Partitions is you can get by issuing "lsvg somevg".
Now for the FS:
If you want different options, best check the man pages for those commands. You are lucky since in AIX are plenty of explained examples at the end of the man pages for about every command. I miss that on other OS'es sometimes. There are some considerations when using that in clusters or when creating FS'es with an extra log LV cause of performance.
Also you can use "smitty lvm" and use the ascii menues.

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.
