crfs -v jfs2 -d somelv -m /dir1/dir2 -p rw -A no -a logname=/dev/somelv.log -a type=somevg
crfs -v jfs2 -d somelv -m /dir1/dir2 -p rw -A no -a logname=/dev/somelv.log -u somevg

The -a type= comes from /etc/filesystems as an attribute. They both seem to work OK. Just wondering if one is better that the other.

Thanks,
