Hi:

In single user mode, only '/' is mounted. However, '/sbin' isn't a separate mountpoint and holds everything you need --- use '/sbin/lvextend' and '/sbin/extendfs'.

Another alternative is to manually mount '/usr'.

If OnlineJFS is not available on the system doing an extendfs in single user mode is the only way to extend those volumes which can not be unmounted during multiusermode.
The lvextend is doable in multiusermode without the OnlineJFS product, it's just the extendfs can't be done with mounted volumes.
