Re: Root File system extension prblm
well try!
lvchange -c n /dev/vg00/lvol3
ie change contiguous allocation policy to not contiguous.
Then lvextend -L 200 /dev/vg00/lvol3
bdf
fsadm -b 204800 /
Good luck
If fsadm doesn't do the trick, or if your systems doesn't boot after! just to be sure get ignite and iteract with install to increase pri swap, boot, root and filesystem type.. etc.
make_recovery -A -v -d /dev/rmt/#m
Later,
Bill

Re: Root File system extension prblm
HP doesn't advise to increase the / file system size. it can't be done since / is HFS. alternative way is to go for customized installation and assigning the / size as per requirement

Re: Root File system extension prblm
Hi
Increasing root file system is some what risky, Because it is contigous, means its PEs should be bundled together. So if U want to extend root lv, Just after root lv nopthing should be there (PEs should be unallocated). Still U can do. But U should have enough free space in HDD. If U have more than 140 MB free space in VG00, Create a new lv with enough size by using this command.
#lvcreate -C y -r n -L xxx /dev/vg00
#newfs /dev/vg00/rlvolx
Now reboot the system, Go to ISL prompt and type
ISL>hpux -lm
Now system will come to MAintanence mode. Mount this newly created lvol as /newroot
Follow this procedure
#mkdir /newroot
#mount /dev/vg00/lvolx /newroot
#cd /
#find . -xdev -depth -print | cpio -pxdm /newroot
#lvrmboot -r /dev/vg00/"Current root lvol name"
#lvlnboot -r /dev/vg00/lvolx (lvolx is newly created lv)
#lvlnboot -B
#lvlnboot -v Now it should list the lvols of boot, swap, root lvols.
Then do a reboot. Ur system will come up with newly created root. Now U can remove old root file system.
This is one way, If U have some problem come back with more inputs.
Best of luck
Shahul

Re: Root File system extension prblm
And shahul,
I agree with you but it seems you left out a bit in the last steps. Once lvrmboot -r is done, you hv to follow the entire lvlnboot options once again ie.
lvrmboot -r /dev/vg00/lvol3 (current root)
lvlnboot -r new lvol
lvlnboot -b boot lvol
lvlnboot -s swap lvol
lvlnboot -d dump lvol
lvlnboot -R
verify with lvlnboot -v
good luck nitin

Re: Root File system extension prblm
Hi
A small change in command what I have mentioned above. use lvlnboot -R inplace of lvlnboot -B.
What Kapil told is right.
Once U user lvrmboot -r U will have to use
lvlnbbot -b
lvlnboot -r
lvlnboot -s
lvlnboot -d
Kapil: Thanks for reminding
