Hi guys,
Need a favour or information on how to get it done in configuring a HPUX-11i box?I need the commands which is needed to configure the box...The pdf's in HP site is too much to look at.Is there any advice from u guys on how could i settle this problem?
I don't have experience with HP-UX, but those that do
are going to need more information if they're going to be able
to help you.
For example *what* are you literally trying to configure on
this HP-UX box?
Basically, i need to know how to setup the vgcreate and networking parts....
giriplug, you're going to need to do some reading to get to where you need to be. HP's manuals are available in html and pdf form. I don't like the pdf's either. So use the html version. HP has a gui based program called SAM. You should probably use it. Here is the index of "Managing Systems and Workgroups: A Guide for HP-UX System Administrators". Read chapter 3, especially the sections called "Using System Administration Manager (SAM)" and "Making Adjustments" (this covers setting initial network parms). And read chapter 6, especially "Managing Disks".
thx guys.....
Not sure if this is to late to give some kind of answer (I just got this ID to this forum).
You may want to try "set_parms" to setup some networking (and hostname, etc. - take a look at the man page for this command). Also "lanscan", "lanadmin" and "ifconfig" are good.
Their are a few commands for setting up volume groups and logical volumes.
I have some stuff here:

and here that may be of use (not sure though):

thx dburtton.....
Follow the following sequence of commands
1)insf -e ->shall create / install device file for all the disks available
2)ioscan -funC disk-> to view all the available disks
3)pvcreate -> create physical volume
4)mkdir /dev/vgXX----create the vg dir, replace XX by vg number
5)mknod /dev/vgXX group c 64 0xXX00000 replace XX by vg number
6)vgcreate /dev/vgXX /dev/dsk/cxtxdx
7)vgextend if you wish to add more disks to the same vg
8)lvcreate -L /dev/vgxx
9)newfs -f vxfs /dev/vgxx/rlvolxx
10)mkdir /xyz -xyz is mount point
11)mount /dev/vgxx/lvolxx /xyz
12)add an entry in /etc/fstab to allow automounting
