Do you mean to want to install a new fresh AIX install on this server?
Do you mean you want to add disks to a server which already has AIX installed?

Create what vg? what lv?

If you don't know how to drive AIX's smit and create volume groups and logical volumes, which is pretty much the starting point for administering any AIX system then maybe you should step back and ensure you're doing the right thing in the first place?

Whatever that might be.
