Hi,
I'm using AIX 5.2 and have a veritas volume of 2.1TB. When I use the IOCINFO
ioctl call to retrieve the device info, I expect the flags in devinfo to be set
with DF_LGDSK flag. But this bit is not set in flags.
Is this a known issue with this ioctl ??
Because of this problem, I'm not able to get the proper disksize for devices >
2TB in my application.
Alternatively, is there any other solution to find out the disksize.
thanks,
Randhir
