Standard disclaimer: use the information that follows at
your own risk. If you screw up a system, don't blame it on me...
-
mklv -t (type) -y (name) VG ##
-
Type = jfs, jfslog, or other some such
-
name = volume_group_name.lv## where ## is a one up number for each logical
volume
-
## is the number of PP's for the logical volume.
mklv
-t jfs -y vg00.lv31 vg00 8
-
crfs -v jfs -d DEVICE -m MOUNT_POINT -A yes
-
-v = filesystem type (normally jfs)
-
-d = logical volume device file
-
-m = mount point for new filesystem.
-
-A = yes or no depending on automounting on boot up.
