lsof in HP-UX

In Linux and Solaris lsof accepts the -X switch which allows to see if deleted files are still in use and eat disk space. In HP-UX it is now working and it is a problem... today one of my filesystems on the server was increasing very fast but existing file sizes were not really changing. lsof shows that some file on a volume group is deleted but doesn't show it's name and i can't give the list of those files to database and application admins.
I wrote a small program to test if Veritas fs is able to show the filename by inode of deleted object but no luck.
Do anyone have ideas how it it possible to determine the filenames of deleted objects but used by processes in HP Unix?
