File system full

Thomas Cole — Mon, 08 Nov 2004 10:20:06 GMT

I have a file system that was 100% full and then unmounted on a HPUX 10.20 system. The filesystem will not mount or fsck because the lack of disk space. The logical volume has been extended. Any ideas on what my options are?

Hi Thomas,

Did you extend it after it was unmounted?. DId you run 'extendfs' after 'lvextend'?. If it is a vxfs filesystem run 'extendfs -F vxfs /dev/vgxx/rlvolx' and then try to mount it.

Hi Thomas,

Did you do a extendfs after the lvextend?
If so may be the filesystem is corrupted.
if you have a good backup, just lvreduce the lvol then lvcreate new one and restore the backup.
If it is vg00 i hope you have a ignite tape.

I had to recreate the filesystem and do a restore.
