Is it possible to check current value of device attribute in AIX 5.3?

Question

In AIX, if i want to change device attribute, i can use 2 different ways:

1. Change attribute and reconfigure device. Attribute will be changed immediately. But if devices is used ( for example, fs mounted ), this way cannot be used.

   # chdev -l hdisk6 -a hcheck_interval=20 Method error (/etc/methods/chgdisk): 0514-062 Cannot perform the requested function because the specified device is busy.

2. Change attribute, but not reconfigure device. Attribute will be changed only after device reconfigure ( usually after reboot )

   # chdev -l hdisk6 -a hcheck_interval=20 -P hdisk6 changed

So, there is must be a method to check the compliance - "what is the current value of device attribute?"

In AIX 6.1 or newer i can check it by command lsattr with options "-P" ( unlike "-E", which show value stored in ODM, which may be different from current value )

# for dev in $(lsdev | awk '/^hdisk/ { print $1; }'); do echo $dev $(lsattr -Pl $dev -a
 hcheck_interval ) $(lsattr -El $dev -a hcheck_interval);done
hdisk0 hcheck_interval 20 Health Check Interval True hcheck_interval 20 Health Check Interval True
[...]
hdisk3 hcheck_interval 20 Health Check Interval True hcheck_interval 20 Health Check Interval True
hdisk4 hcheck_interval 0 Health Check Interval True hcheck_interval 0 Health Check Interval True
hdisk6 hcheck_interval 0 Health Check Interval True hcheck_interval 20 Health Check Interval True

In above example i can see that hdisk4 and hdisk6 run with hcheck_interval=0 ( not compliant ), but hdisk6 after reconfigure ( after reboot ) will run with hcheck_interval=20 ( compliant )

But in AIX 5.3 or elder there is no "-P" option in lsattr utility. Is it possible to check actual value of device attribute in AIX 5.3 ?

update

in aix 6.1 or newer i also can check current value with kdb. But i still have no way to check current value in aix 5.3
