After the LVextend u need to extend the File system using the command

# /usr/sbin/extendfs [-F FStype] [-q] [-v] [-s size] special

for more info check the man page of extendfs

Hope this helps

If you have online JFS installed, this can be done online.

1. lvextend -L 4000 /dev/vgmsa05/POC_Backup
2. fsadm -b 4000M /
3. bdf

Otherwise use extendfs as suggested.

Hi Yogi

1. After extending lvol, you need to extendfs using raw volume

#lvextend -L 4000 /dev/vgmsa05/rPOC_Backup

2. Suggest to go for Online JFS which is a easy tool for Logical Volume management Online
