Default How to determine the size of attached network storage disk in AIX

I could determine for the direct attached disk sizes using lscfg,
lsattr commands but not for the network attached disks. Is there any
command to determine the disk size for network attached disks?


Thanks for your help.

Try: lspv hdiskx

This works on all disks.

For SAN disks hosted by EMC DMX (Symmetrix) or CLARiiON arrays, you'll
probably find a program called "inq" installed on your system somewhere.
On our AIX boxes, it's installed in /usr/lpp/EMC/Symmetrix/bin or
/usr/lpp/CLARiiON/bin. It was somewhere else on my old HP boxes. I'm not
sure if there are native tools to deal with HP/Sun/HDS storage subsystems,
but that may also depend on your O/S platform.

The other replies work okay if the disks in question are part of volume
groups already and used optimally... ;-) And, in fact, you can almost
always make a VG out of a SAN disk and see what LSVG/LSPV says about it...
