It sounds like the lvextend was successful, but the fsadm/extendfs was not.

What happens if you try to fsadm/extendfs from command line? Do you get an error?
With OnlineJFS:
# fsadm -F vxfs -b (size) /dev/vgXX/lvolXX

Without OnlineJFS:
# umount /dev/vgXX/lvolXX
# extendfs -F vxfs /dev/vgXX/rlvolXX
# mount /dev/vgXX/lvolXX

Now you should also extend filesystem. You can use "extendfs" command to do that.

For example:

extendfs -F vxfs /dev/vg01/rlvol1

Try "man extendfs" to get more information.

Hi,

It's a trap ... When you want to extend a file system :

- If you use command line :
lvextend first then umount,extenfs,mount or fsadm depending on wether you have Online jfs or not

- If you use SAM, you have to extend the FILESYSTEM, not the LV. In this case, SAM will do first the lvextend then will extend the filesystem. If you choose to extend the LV, it will only do what you ask (only extend the LV), but unfortunately the FS will stay unchanged.

Regards.
