Yep, it's the JFS (Journalling File System) which is supposed to provide a
lot better error handling than either of the others, as well as work with
the LVM (Logical Volume Manager).

lsvg - list volume groups and statistics
lspv - list physical volumes and statistics
lslv - list logical volumes and statistics (this is what you probably want)
df   - lists disk and filesystem information

All shipped with the system; what's so tough about this?
