hi gurus;

i have a HP-UX 11.11 PA-RISK system and LVM is in use.
i can't use fsadm to extend filesystem already I have Online JFS.

# swlist -l fileset|grep -i OnlineJFS
# OnlineJFS B.11.11 Online features of the VxFS File System
OnlineJFS.VXFS-ADV-RUN B.11.11 VXFS-ADV-RUN

#cat /etc/inittab
i see the line
vxen::bootwait:/sbin/fs/vxfs/vxenablef -a

and vxenable tell us the system is not licensed.
# /sbin/fs/vxfs/vxenablef
System is not licensed

and i have a 50.lic file.
# ll /etc/vx/elm/50.lic
-rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 261 Dec 7 16:17 /etc/vx/elm/50.lic

# vxlicense -p

i try to activate license by;
#/sbin/fs/vxfs/vxenablef -a
the output is nothing so i think it is activated.

but the output is still ;
# /sbin/fs/vxfs/vxenablef
System is not licensed

So where is the problem ?

Hi Mustafa,

You will have to contact HP and ask for a new license, the license you have has expired on Jun 24.

Hi Mustafa:

Your license expired 166+ days ago! You have been bitten by the OnlineJFS license expiration bug.

Follow these instructions:

Your license has expired...

Here's what we need to do.
Send a email to HP licensing email address is

hplicense.na@hp.com

include SAID of system with licensing issue.

They will give you a codeword for OnlineJFS for 11.11 (if you are entitled to it).

Basically, you will have to re-install a newer version of onlinejfs.

cd I used was: 5013-4962

Product: B3929CA

Disk 1 of Sep 2006 11.11 Application Software
