Re: Extneding the /var file system

Hi Michael,

Do the following:
1.Backup up your /var
2. bdf to know where /var is
3.Boot through ISL to single user mode (ISL>hpux -is)
4.lvextend -L NNN /dev/vg00/lvoln (for var)
5.extendfs -F (filesystem) /dev/vg00/rlvoln
6.mount /var and restore from back
7.reboot

Cheers!

Re: Extneding the /var file system

Tim is right. /var does not have to be contiguous. I made that mistake because I had inherited a system where the volume had been created to be contiguous and it caused me problems.
Thanks for the proof read there.
