I have a system with HP-UX 11.23 installed on it. There are ~36GB of unused space on the HDD. I did a very basic installation, and it created the usual volume group /dev/vg00. When I look at the output of ioscan -funC disk, I see this (and more, but irrelevant to this post):
How do I "see" the unused hard drive space? I am looking at the size of the "slices" and here is what I am seeing:
Normally on a Linux system I could do something like "fdisk -l /dev/sda" to see the partition table for /dev/sda, or I could do "fdisk /dev/sda" to view and/or edit the partition table for that device.

I have sun ultra5 pc with 9GB HDD and I'm planning to add 20GB HHD for future expansion and it is coming from my old intel based pc. My problem is everytime I formatted the new HD the system only gives me the result of free space for about 2GB+ as a maximum space.

Hi guys...

This causes a complete exit if a variable is used/found but has not been allocated at the start of the program.

cmdk
cmdk(7D) Devices cmdk(7D)NAME
cmdk - common disk driver
SYNOPSIS
cmdk@target, lun : [ partition | slice ]
DESCRIPTION
The cmdk device driver is a common interface to various disk devices. The driver supports magnetic fixed disks and magnetic removable
disks.
The block-files access the disk using the system's normal buffering mechanism and are read and written without regard to physical disk
records. There is also a "raw" interface that provides for direct transmission between the disk and the user's read or write buffer. A sin-
gle read or write call usually results in one I/O operation; raw I/O is therefore considerably more efficient when many bytes are transmit-
ted. The names of the block files are found in /dev/dsk; the names of the raw files are found in /dev/rdsk.
I/O requests to the magnetic disk must have an offset and transfer length that is a multiple of 512 bytes or the driver returns an EINVAL
error.
Slice 0 is normally used for the root file system on a disk, slice 1 as a paging area (for example, swap), and slice 2 for backing up the
entire fdisk partition for Solaris software. Other slices may be used for usr file systems or system reserved area.
Fdisk partition 0 is to access the entire disk and is generally used by the fdisk(1M) program.
