cannot create file > 2GB with make_sys_image

[Sergej_5]

Hello Guru's!
I've got problem with make_sys_image from ignite-ux!

i 've copied make_sys_image from Ignite-UX server B.5.4.50 to HP-UX 11.11 and start to make golden image:
----------------------------------------------
# ./make_sys_image -s hostname

I get the following output:
* Preparing to create a system archive
* Testing pax for needed patch
* Passed pax tests.

WARNING: CLEAN_LEVEL set to 2: (see -l option for make_sys_image(1m))
While this command is running at clean level 2, the system
should be as quiet as possible. The host and/or networking
information on the system are temporarily set to newconfig
values. After the command is complete these files are put
back as they were.

I 've installed pax patch PHCO_30420
and check out ulimit -a:

# ulimit -a
time(seconds) unlimited
file(blocks) unlimited
data(kbytes) 262144
stack(kbytes) 8192
memory(kbytes) unlimited
coredump(blocks) 4194303
nofiles(descriptors) 60

/etc/fstab looks like:
/dev/vg00/lvol3 / vxfs delaylog 0 1
/dev/vg00/lvol1 /stand hfs defaults 0 1

How can i make FS with largefile support?
I don't have JFS installed...

How can i make filesystem with largefile support during installation of OS?

What have i missing?
How can i rid of error:

Error 0
cat: Cannot write to output.

Kind regards,
Sergej

Hi Sergej,

with online jfs

# fsadm -o largefiles /app/oracle/dbappl

without online jfs
# umount /filesystem
# fsadm -o largefiles /dev/vg01/rlvol4
# mount /filesystem

Best regards,
Robert-Jan

When i try to umount /
i get:

umount: cannot unmount / : Device busy

Is that mean that i have to go in rescue mode or single mode ...
How can i do that?

Regrads,
Sergej

Sergej,

Do you have OnlineJFS installed? If so the fsadm command mentioned above should work. Else you should go to single-user mode and try again.

Regards, MB.

I do not have installed OnlineJFS

Where can i obtan OnlineJFS for HP-UX 11.11 ?

Kind regards,
Sergej

You will have to purchase a license

/var is impossible to umount in multi user mode. you will have to go to single user mode.

Hi man.
You can not create file with size > 2 GB unless you have OnlineJFS.
You can go to this site to download OnlineJFS for *FREE*.
http://software.hp.com/portal/swdepot/searchProducts.do

It nearly in the bottom of the page.

To extend a LVM with OnlineJFS, first you have to kill all of process that running in that mount point filesystem.
Using fuser -cu /mount point to verify and fuser -kcu /mount point to kill them.
Then:
1. lvextend -L /dev/vgxx/lvX
2. fsadm -F vxfs -b /mount point

Note: you have to specify the size in both command and both of them must be the same!

Hope this helps

Goodluck to you
