However + these particular OS implementations of vxfs may differ in on-disk + data endianess and/or superblock offset.

Tests were performed with HP-UX VxFS version 3. NOTE: the file system type as used by mount(1), mount(2) and fstab(5) is 'vxfs' as it describes the file system format, not the actual driver. + There is a userspace utility for HP-UX logical volumes which makes + creating HP-UX logical volumes easy from HP-UX disk block device file + or regular file with image of the disk.
