"Learn the intricacies of the AIX file system framework. Every operating system provides a native kernel framework that kernel developers have to understand and adhere to when developing a piece of a kernel component for that operating system. This article sheds some light on the AIX file system framework. You need to understand the framework in order to develop a new file system, or to port an existing file system to the AIX operating system."

I'm not familiar with the history of the volume managers. But from this link: http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/aix/products/aixos/whitepapers/lvm_ve...
I assume IBM developed the LVM by them self. Not 100% sure at all. The IBM FS (JFS2) is developed by IBM.

Thought the IBM JFS2 and HP-UX JFS are totaly different.
