fsadm error

Regina Mitchell — Fri, 24 Apr 2009 04:55:29 GMT

I'm hoping someone can help this morning. I have a HPUX 11.23. I'm increasing the size of two mountpoints

1. Extend the Logical Volume
lvextend –L 71712 /dev/vg02/lvol1
fsadm –F vxfs –b 71712m /ldata/ohp1logs1

lvextend –L 207072 /dev/vg02/lvol2
fsadm –F vxfs –b 207072m /ldata/ohp1data1

I get the following error UX:vxfs fsadm: ERROR: V-3-20279: /ldata/ohp1data1 is not the root inode of a vxfs file system

ERROR: V-3-20279: /ldata/ohp1logs1 is not the root inode of a vxfs file system

Can someone help? I'm in the middle of a maintenance window

HI,

The message "/ldata/ohp1logs1 .... is nott the root inode of a vxfs file system" means that '/ldata/ohp1logs1 ...' is not a mounted filesystem.

Hi Regina,

As said, plz check if the lvol is mounted and then follow regular steps for extending:

#lvextend â L 15000 /dev/vg02/lvol1
#fsadm â b 15000M /ldata/ohp1data1 (M or m both will work same)

regds,

Hi,

you are giving the below command
fsadm â F vxfs â b 207072m /ldata/ohp1data1

always fsadm with Online JFS is working with mountpoints(/usr,/tmp...)only so give the mountpoint name insted of /ldata/ohp1data1

Hi,

First check the file system is mounted or not
also run the "fstyp lvname" command and check the weather you FS is vxfs or not.

Thanks,
Avinasha

Hi Regina,

if the filesystem is not mounted, use extendfs command to extend it. See extendfs(1m).

Thanks to all. After I created this thread I realized I did not have the two filesystems mounted. I mounted them and was able to execute the fsadm command successfully. Thanks to all that replied.

Shortly after posting my problem I realized I did not have my filesystems mounted. I mounted them and was able to execute fsadm.

The threads confirmed what I did.
