     diskman(1m)                DG/UX 4.30                 diskman(1m)



     NAME
          diskman - menu interface for managing physical and logical
          disks

     SYNOPSIS
          diskman [ option ]

     DESCRIPTION
          Only the superuser can execute the diskman command.

          The DG/UX system comes with two versions of the diskman
          program:


          stand-alone    You invoke this version directly from tape
                         when you are installing the DG/UX system, or
                         when your system is down, you can boot the
                         diskman disk image at the SCM> prompt.  The
                         disk image, located on your /usr logical
                         disk, is /stand/diskman.

          stand-among    You can invoke this version through the
                         sysadm diskmgmt command or directly from the
                         command line.

          The diskman program contains a complete set of menu-driven
          procedures for creating and managing your physical and
          logical disks.  When invoked without an option, diskman
          presents a menu of disk management selections, from which
          the user may select.

          For a complete explanation of the diskman program, see the
          chapter "Disk Management" in Installing and Managing the
          DG/UX System.  The information on this reference page is
          meant to serve as an outline of diskman's functionality.

     OPTIONS
          You can invoke diskman from the command line with the
          following options.  Physical disks must be specified in
          DG/UX common format, such as cied(,0).  Logical disks are
          specified by name, such as binky1.  Note that physical disk
          specifications contain characters that are special to the
          shell, so such arguments should be enclosed in quotes.
