    Admins-

    I'm new to HP-UX and am trying to wrap my head around the concepts of
    volume groups and logical volumes versus partitions as well as the
    different local file systems that HP-UX supports.

    Is there anywhere to get a good definition between all of these?

    Also -- in a practical application -- I have a single disk that has a
    single file system on it which I am adding to an existing machine running
    11.0. The system sees the physical disk at 8/4.11.0. The problem is that
    I have no idea how to mount it. I have no idea what file system it's
    using, except to say that it came out of another 11.0 box.

    Thanks in advance,
    Roy
