Extending drive space.

Hi all,
I have database server in which the drives are mounted on SAN VA7110. One of the path in my DB server is 98% i wish to extend this.
I wish to know the following,

1. How much free space available on my SAN.
2. How can use that free space to extend that 98% drive path,

I am attaching that bdf details below.

This is critical prodution server. I need a expert to reply to this,

Bdf as follows,

/dev/vg00/lvol3 1540096 1436200 103096 93% /
/dev/vg00/lvol1 497584 89168 358656 20% /stand

You can see one drive path is 98%. I wish to extend this using the available free space in SAN.
Lot of points...

FYI: vg01 is mounted on SAN VA7110.

Thanks

Re: Extending drive space.

If this is the same VA7110 as in your other posting you have no more unallocated space on the disk array. This is from your armdsp -a, the last line shows zero unallocated space.

CAPACITY USAGE

Total Disk Enclosures:________________1

Redundancy Group:_____________________1
Total Disks:________________________14
Total Physical Size:________________467.3 GB
Allocated to Regular LUNs:__________130.107 GB
Allocated as Business Copies:_______110 GB
Used as Active Hot Spare:___________0 bytes
Used for Redundancy:________________227.192 GB
Unallocated (Available for LUNs):___0 bytes

You should check within your volume group vg01 (vgdisplay -v /dev/vg01), to see if there is any unallocated space in the physical volumes (PVs) of vg01 or if there are any unused disks from the array. If there is, you may be able to extend the logical volumes (LVs).
