erroneous cancel of extendfs - HELP!!!!

Hi,HPUX11.11ver1, RP2450,
I have done the ridiculously stupid thing...cancelled an extendfs cmd that I thought I had written incorrectly but infact had not!!. I am now unsure how to continue, I followed screen prompt, but the last message left me stumped. Can anyone suggest what I might do??
Here is a screen dump:
# umount /udbbkup
# lvextend -L 20000 /dev/vg01/lvudbk
Warning: rounding up logical volume size to extent boundary at size "20004" MB f
or striping.
Logical volume "/dev/vg01/lvudbk" has been successfully extended.
Volume Group configuration for /dev/vg01 has been saved in /etc/lvmconf/vg01.con

# extendfs /dev/vg01/rlvudbk

The file system is marked bad. Run full fsck manually.
(e.g. fsck -F vxfs /dev/vg01/rlvudbk)

# extendfs /dev/vg01/rlvudbk

/dev/vg01/rlvudbk invalid super-block

Thanks to anyone and everyone who helps me out, and plenty of points...

Hi,

Have you tried running the fsck full file system check?

fsck -F vxfs -o full /dev/vg01/rlvudbk

Thanks John, I have run cmd as suggested and it has returned with:
charon> # fsck -F vxfs -o full /dev/vg01/rlvudbk
vxfs fsck: not a valid vxfs file system
invalid super-block
search for auxiliary super-block? (ynq)y
alternate super-block not found
vxfs fsck: cannot initialize aggregate
file system check failure, aborting ...

Thanks

Maria,

At this point, I'd suggest calling HP. Maybe one of their LVM wizards can help save your filesystem. Do you have a good backup of the data on that filesystem?

Thanks John for you rassistance with this. I actually pur a call in to hp lvm wiz'ez before I sent this thread. Figured I would get help/ideas from both points.
I ended up having to create new f/system, and restoring the data back.

thanks heaps
