HI Andreas!!
Thanks a lot for your response..
But according to man crfs,
1.)A new logical volume is created for the file system unless the name
of an existing logical volume is specified using the -d.
2.) Mount point can be controlled both in mkfs & crfs....
Plz let me know your views on this...
Thanks,
Ashutosh
