I want to resize the root filesystem of a HP-UX 11.23. I've already resized the logical volume of the root lv (/dev/vg00/lvol3) to the new size using the LVM maintance mode. My last problem is the file system resize with extendfs. I've no OnlineJFS ...
I need a kind of an HP-UX LiveCD with the LVM and VXFS tools installed. I've already tried the HP-UX installation DVD recovery shell. But this recovery shell is not very useful. Now I've build an ISO image with the make_media_install script. I want to know: Are the tools located on this 300MB ISO image, before I reboot the server or has anybody other ideas?
Thank you
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Resize root filesystem using Ignite? (HP-UX 11.23 IA64)
I've it done using Ignite-UX Media with the following steps:
1. Boot Ignite-UX Media CD (Expert Recovery Shell)
# loadfile /sbin/lvchange /sbin/vgchange /sbin/vgscan /sbin/vgimport /sbin/vgdisplay
# vgscan
# mkdir /dev/vg00
# mknod /dev/vg00/group c 64 0x000000 # 0x000000 in this case!
# vgimport -p -v /dev/vg00 /dev/dsk/c4t0d0s2 # /dev/dsk/c4t0d0s2 in this case!
# vgimport -v /dev/vg00 /dev/dsk/c4t0d0s2 # /dev/dsk/c4t0d0s2 in this case!
# vgchange -a y /dev/vg00 # Activate the VG
# loadfile /sbin/fs/vxfs5.0/extendfs /sbin/fs/vxfs5.0/fsck /sbin/fs/vxfs/fsck /sbin/fs_wrapper /sbin/fs/vxfs /sbin/fs/vxfs5.0 /sbin/fs/vxfs5.0/fstyp
# ln -s /sbin/fs/vxfs/fsck /sbin/
# /sbin/fs/vxfs5.0/extendfs /dev/vg00/rlvol3
My last question is, it's possible and easier to do that using the "(1) Install HP-UX" option in the Ignite-UX menu? I've was afraid of doing that ;)

I am not even sure if what you are doing is an option.

Re: Resize root filesystem using Ignite? (HP-UX 11.23 IA64)
I want to summarize up your suggestions to resize the root filesystem:
1. Boot from an HP-UX Ignite medium
2. Select option 1 (Install HP-UX)
3. After that you have interface like SAM to resize all LVs and filesystems? right?
Sorry, I've never done before and I've no test machine or so ;)

Choose the 'install' option and select the 'Advanced' mode. Then, use the "Filesystem" tab to resize the filesystems according to your taste. Be sure to specify only the disk you want for vg00.
