I changed the title of the thread -it was useless to anybody wanting to answer questions.
PLEASE use informative titles - ones that describe your problem.

The df -h command displays usually in the fifth column percent of disk space used. Pipe that into awk, look for disk usage 90 or above, write that to a file.
If the file is larger than zero bytes (only because you found a problem will this be true), then email to somebody@someplace.com

Code:
df -h | awk 'int($5)>89' > tmpfile
if  [ -s tmpfile ] ; then
   mailx -s 'disk space problem' me@mycompany.com < tmpfile
fi

You will need to make changes to send it to multiple users - I leave that up to you.

vximportdg(1M)															    vximportdg(1M)

NAME
vximportdg - import a disk group into the Veritas Volume Manager configuration SYNOPSIS
vximportdg daname new_dgname DESCRIPTION
The vximportdg utility performs a temporary import of the disk group contained on the disk device specified by daname to the disk group specified by new_dgname. As the persistent disk group information is not changed within the private partition of the affected disk, the import is only valid for the duration of the bootload or until a vxdg deport is performed. ARGUMENTS
daname Specifies the device name (disk access name) of one of the member disks of the disk group to be imported. The other members are imported automatically. new_dgname Specifies the disk group to be imported. USAGE
One reason to use the vximportdg utility is to import a second generation of the rootdg disk group so that its objects are available for use while a system is running on a different rootdg. To prevent volumes on the second generation rootdg from having the same device minor numbers as volumes (such as rootvol) on the active rootdg, the importation assigns temporary non-conflicting device minor numbers. If this occurs, vximportdg outputs warning messages detailing the mapping of the minor numbers. SEE ALSO
