Problem run command "vxfs fsadm: V-3-25255: fsadm: You don't have a license to run this program"

Hi,
I have the problem run command

fsadm -F vxfs -b 10240M /tmp/hp
fsadm: /etc/default/fs is used for determining the file system type
vxfs fsadm: V-3-25255: fsadm: You don't have a license to run this program

The LV extend sucessfully but extend fliesystem not.

>>You don't have a license to run this program

Fairly self-explanatory.

Run '/usr/sbin/vxlicense -p' to see what you are licensed for.

If you are licensed for Online_JFS, which is required to do what you want to do, you should get output like this:

# vxlicense â p

vrts:vxlicense: INFO: Feature name: HP_OnlineJFS [50]
vrts:vxlicense: INFO: Number of licenses: 1 (nonâ floating)
vrts:vxlicense: INFO: Expiration date: No expiration date
vrts:vxlicense: INFO: Release Level: 22
vrts:vxlicense: INFO: Machine Class: All
vrts:vxlicense: INFO: Site ID: 0


If you don't get anything or it shows to be expired, then that is your problem.

Hi Patrick
run command show errors

SAPL910_RX6600:/> /usr/sbin/vxlicense -p
sh: /usr/sbin/vxlicense: not found.
SAPL910_RX6600:/> man vxlicense
+No manual entry for vxlicense.

Try this:

swlist -l product |grep -i online

If nothing is returned, then you don't have online JFS installed.

It appears you do not have online JFS installed.

Patrick,
how extend the FileSystem, exist other option?

[Patrick Wallek]

You would have to unmount the file systems and use the 'extendfs' command.

# man extendfs

for details.
