HP-UX had LVM (Logical Volume Management) starting with 9.0x I think. I set some HP/9000s up at the Pentagon a few years ago. The nature of our product was such that we needed to create a huge LV for raw space on an Oracle DB. After HP-UX 10.0x, I heard that they were able to get rid of the LVM size limitations. Unfortunately, the 9000 class computers were over 50 Grand, very inaccessible for a hobbyist. But the workstations (900 class?) were a little better in price. I think they were around 10-15Gs, same OS versions. Nowadays, you can probably get them a lot cheaper with the higher OS versions and really make some space. -- UNIX Rules!!!
