You can use the command-line interface on the Virtual I/O Server (VIOS) to manage logical units in shared storage pools.

Provisioning client partitions with logical unit storage

Moving a logical unit from one storage tier to another
A logical unit (LU) can be moved from one storage tier to another storage tier. One LU, tree, or subtree can be moved at a time.
Listing the storage tiers of a logical unit
Working with a logical unit (LU) requires that you identify which storage tiers contain blocks for this LU.
Unmapping a logical unit
You can unmap a logical unit by using the Virtual I/O Server (VIOS) command-line interface.
Removing logical units
