(I work for Phil) Yes, we're using LVM. Each filesystem is 29 3390-9 volumes, at roughly 7 gb. each, for a total of roughly 204 gb. per filesystem. Two of these, plus 5 minidisks for the system, consumes all 256 minor node numbers for the DASD device. To add more, we'd have to go to a new major number, which would give us another 64 devices. (Each physical volume consumes 4 minor numbers.)
