Dynix/ptx equivalents of lsdev, mkdev etc.

I am familiar with the AIX commands lsdev, mkdev, rmdev and so on. Have been asked to look at a very old Sequent Quad box running Dynix/ptx - believed to be version 2.4.1 ! These commands don't appear to be present. Can anyone please identify the equivalent Dynix commands? I've been handed the reference manuals (dated 1993) and I don't think there has been much upgrade work done since.

Any help appreciated, thanks.
