Partitions and slices
In most OSs a single disk (host volume) is divided into logical parts called partitions. In some OSs,
partitions are called slices or disk sections.
For some replication manager job commands, you may need to enter a host volume's partition or
ID into a command argument. If necessary, see your host operating system documentation for
details on identifying partitions.
HP-UX disk sections
If you are a superuser for an HP-UX host, you can identify host volume disk sections by viewing
the /etc/mnttab file.
HP-UX supports up to 16 disk sections, numbered 0 through 15. Disk section number 2 refers to
the entire disk.
