hi folks
I need to create volumes groups, with 16 dasds fisical disk
when I run the follwing commands
this message appears

i390:~ #
i390:~ # for i in g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v
> do
> dasdfmt -b 4096 -f /dev/dasd${i}
> done

I am going to format the device /dev/dasde in the following way:
   Device number of device : 0x2733
   Major number of device  : 94
   Minor number of device  : 16
   Labelling device        : yes
   Disk label              : LNX1 x80405228
   Blocksize               : 4096

--->> ATTENTION! <<---
All data in the specified range of that device will be lost.
Type "yes" to continue, no will leave the disk untouched: yes
Formatting the device. This may take a while (get yourself a coffee).
Finished formatting the device.
Rereading the partition table... done.
