Re: bigger disk to smaller
Hi David,
- If you have the "Online JFS" product, you can do it online (fsadm).
- An other good and FREE way is to create an ignite tape whith IGNITE-UX :
- make_recovery -ACi (full backup of vg00)
- boot on the tape (stop auto boot, search IPL, boot Pxx)
- the "-i" of make_recovery give directly the menu after the boot.
- Under this menu, you can change what you want : ip, hostname, lvol size, ...
Regards,
Patrice

Re: bigger disk to smaller
David,
Patrice is correct. You can download Ignite at www.software.hp.com/products/IUX freely. Once installed, use the make_recovery -Ai (the -C does add limited functionality normally, but for what you are doing it will just take longer) to create a system recovery tape. This wil get everything in vg00. Boot the server you want to change from this tape, interrupt the boot (you will have a 10 second period of time in which to do this - interrupting will bring you to an install menu), make the filesystem changes you need, and let it run.
