In HP-UX 11.31, LVM doesn’t use “ctd’ (ie: /dev/rdsk/c2t1d0), but DSF to balance the throughput between many device paths., so if you need identify what physical device represent that logical device, you can use ioscan, for example:

server@root:/root # vgdisplay -v vg00
--- Volume groups ---
VG Name                     /dev/vg00

(...)

LV Name                     /dev/vg00/lvol12

LV Size (Mbytes)            5120
Current LE                  320
Allocated PE                320

--- Physical volumes ---
PV Name                     /dev/disk/disk4
PV Status                   available
Total PE                    4375
Free PE                     377
Autoswitch                  On
Proactive Polling           On

Note that the pv name is “disk4”, not c2t1d3.

With ioscan you can reverse map it:

server@root:/root # ioscan -m dsf
Persistent DSF           Legacy DSF(s)
========================================
/dev/rdisk/disk3         /dev/rdsk/c2t1d0
/dev/rdisk/disk4         /dev/rdsk/c2t0d0
/dev/rdisk/disk5         /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0


Now we know that the “disk4″ is the physical disk located in 12/0/1/1/0.0.0

root@brux0044:/root # ioscan -fnC disk
