Is there any system call available in AIX to read the size of raw disk?
If I use the command "lspv -L",it only gives size of PVs on which file system is there. I need to extract the size raw disk i.e. file system is not there on the disk.
Thanks,

The query is as follows :

Disk 2 : Mirror of disk 1 (used for resiliency)
Then one uses an external array... (1 Reply)

Dpkg::Source::Package(3) libdpkg-perl Dpkg::Source::Package(3)NAME
Dpkg::Source::Package - manipulate Debian source packages
DESCRIPTION
This module provides an object that can manipulate Debian source packages. While it supports both the extraction and the creation of source
packages, the only API that is officially supported is the one that supports the extraction of the source package.
FUNCTIONS
$p = Dpkg::Source::Package->new(filename => $dscfile, options => {})
Creates a new object corresponding to the source package described by the file $dscfile.
The options hash supports the following options:
skip_debianization
If set to 1, do not apply Debian changes on the extracted source package.
skip_patches
If set to 1, do not apply Debian-specific patches. This options is specific for source packages using format "2.0" and "3.0
(quilt)".
require_valid_signature
If set to 1, the check_signature() method will be stricter and will error out if the signature can't be verified.
copy_orig_tarballs
If set to 1, the extraction will copy the upstream tarballs next the target directory. This is useful if you want to be able to
rebuild the source package after its extraction.
$p->get_filename()
Returns the filename of the DSC file.
$p->get_files()
Returns the list of files referenced by the source package. The filenames usually do not have any path information.
$p->check_checksums()
Verify the checksums embedded in the DSC file. It requires the presence of the other files constituting the source package. If any
inconsistency is discovered, it immediately errors out.
$bool = $p->is_signed()
Returns 1 if the DSC files contains an embedded OpenPGP signature. Otherwise returns 0.
$p->check_signature()
Implement the same OpenPGP signature check that dpkg-source does. In case of problems, it prints a warning or errors out.
If the object has been created with the "require_valid_signature" option, then any problem will result in a fatal error.
$p->extract($targetdir)
Extracts the source package in the target directory $targetdir. Beware that if $targetdir already exists, it will be erased.
