tail: create the jfs2 filesystem on vxvm
ixp650 #mkfs -V jfs2 -o log=INLINE /dev/vx/rdsk/wddg/testvol
mkfs: destroy /dev/vx/rdsk/wddg/testvol (yes)? y

increasing size of Filesystem
Greetings!..
Did you try using vxresize command or vxassist command...
i can give you the command usage,
vxresize -g <dg name> <volume name> <length> alloc=<disk name>
You need to specify the length to be the usable size of the free disk which you are allocating. For ex. +50G inorder to add 50GB to the existing filesystem.
another option which you can use when you have free blocks on the existing disk allocated is,
vxassist -g <dg name> growby <volume name> <length>
Hi, Since its a VXVM Volume &
Hi,
Since its a VXVM Volume & AIX jfs2 filesystem.. I would think to use "vxassist" to resize the volume & chfs (I hope this is equivalent of fsadm in AIX) to resize filesystem, In HPUX this command is extendfs I believe..
