:command:`vxdisksetup -i ${ctd} [ privlen = ${size} ]`
    Lays out the vxvm formatting on the disk. ${ctd} is specified w/o the 
    /dev/dsk/
:command:`vxdg -g ${dg} free ${disk}`
    Identifies the amount of free space on that disk.
:command:`vxprivutil scan ${rdsk}| grep group`
    IDs the group to which a disk belongs::

        # vxprivutil scan /dev/rdsk/c8t7d3 | grep ^group
        group: name=MJPdg id=1228148230.1267.usilap35

:command:`vxdg -g ${dg} adddisk ${pv}=${pv}`
    Add disks to disk group ${dg}

:command:`vxplex -g ${dg} -o rm dis ${plex}`
    Disassociate and remove a mirrored plex from a volume. Not sure what this 
    would do if it were the only plex in a volume...

:command:`vxassist -g ${dg} mirror ${vol} ctrl:c##`
    Mirrors volume ${vol} onto any available disk on controller c##. Other 
    storage attributes are available as well; see the admin guide for details

:command:`vxassist -g ${dg} remove mirror ${vol} !${subdisk}`
    Counterintuitively, this removes the mirror from ${subdisk}

:command:`vxprint -lvp -g ${group} ${plex}`
    Displays plex information like whether or not it's striped.

:command:`vxdg -g ${group} free`
    Displays the amount of free space on each disk in the disk group - 
    measured in sectors so divide by 2048 to get megs.

:command:`vxassist -g ${group} maxgrow ${vol}`
    Displays the maximum size you can grow the filesystem.

:command:`vxresize -F vxfs -g ${group} ${vol} [+/-]${size}[kmg]`
    Grows the volume by the amount specified in size. Size can be specified 
    in k's, m's or g's. no space between +/- and the number
