<DIV><SPAN class=392130014-27082010><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm trying to
identify the best approach to dynamically identify whether a client has a spare
disk to build Logical Volumes against or whether I need to deploy them onto the
rootdisk. At present i've built the post script that deliveries the
following:</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=392130014-27082010><FONT face=Arial

<DIV><SPAN class=392130014-27082010><FONT face=Arial size=2>Validate Volume
Groups,</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=392130014-27082010><FONT face=Arial size=2>If no additional
Volume Groups available Built on RootVG</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=392130014-27082010><FONT face=Arial size=2>Validate Available
Space and Add LV's</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=392130014-27082010><FONT face=Arial
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=392130014-27082010><FONT face=Arial size=2>However I'm
wondering on how to accuratly identify which disk is free and what approach
should be taken to build a VG on it with removing the wrong disk, i'm new
to this so any help would be greatly appreciated, i've tried a couple of %pre
scripts but assuming rootvg is always going to be on sda isn't always
true.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
