    Once upon a time,
    the bdf command gave me an output like this

    Filesystem kbytes used avail %used Mounted on
    /dev/vg00/lvol3 143360 31201 105181 23% /
    /dev/vg00/lvol1 83733 28748 46611 38% /stand
    ...

    Now I see /dev/root for the lv mounted on / :

    Filesystem kbytes used avail %used Mounted on
    /dev/root 143360 31201 105181 23% /
    /dev/vg00/lvol1 83733 28748 46611 38% /stand
    ...

    Why? I don't like it at all.
    This appears on both our hp-ux 11.00 servers.
    Does this means I have now different data
    mounted on / ?
    Where comes this /dev/root and /dev/rroot files
    from, and why and how to see the correct lvs again?

    Thank you and best regards,
    Stefano
