I have several servers needing filesystem extended, they are different levels of OS: 11.11, 11.23, 11.31.
It may be obvious, but still getting to know HP-UX. Does the following means:
- that the system has a licensed and active onlineJFS running?
- that the filesystems themselves are using onlineJFS and I can try to increase the filesystems online?
Whether the systems are using or not using onlineJFS, is the difference that the system will do nothing and return some error code.
I noticed on 4.1 it added File Change Log.
thanks in advance
on one system ....
vxlicrep/vxlicense -p returns:
License Key = ####################
Product Name = VERITAS File System
Serial Number = 1
License Type = PERMANENT
OEM ID = ####
Features :=
HP_OnlineJFS = Enabled
CPU Count = Not Restricted
Platform = HP-UX
Version = 4.1
File Change Log = Enabled
Maximum number of file systems = Not Restricted
on the system ....

and on the 11.11 ...

Hi John,
You can extend your filesystem using online JFS
you can check availablity of online JFS by
#swlist -l bundle|grep -i online
#swlist -l product|grep -i jfs
You can use "fsadm" cammand to extend online your filesystems without unmounting the filesystems!

Re: Using OnlineJFS on HP-UX
> system has a licensed and active onlineJFS running?
Yes. All the vxlicrep/vxlicense -p outputs you posted indicate that some version of OnlineJFS is installed.
> the filesystems themselves are using onlineJFS and I can try to increase the filesystems online?
All VxFS filesystems are compatible with OnlineJFS by design. Installing the OnlineJFS depot/license just enables the online extension tools and some other things.
> Whether the systems are using or not using onlineJFS, is the difference that the system will do nothing and return some error code.
Yes. I think it even outputs an error message that says something like "you don't have a license to use this feature" if you don't have the OnlineJFS installed.

Re: Using OnlineJFS on HP-UX
Thanks for the confirmation, things went well and when they didn't, I learned a little with no major issues.
just some follow up and to keep relevant info in the post and to help others.
This was on a 11.11 system, note it was not mirrored:
# lvextend -L 3584 /dev/vg00/lvol4
Logical volume "/dev/vg00/lvol4" has been successfully extended.
Volume Group configuration for /dev/vg00 has been saved in /etc/lvmconf/vg00.conf
# fsadm -F vxfs -b 3584M /home
vxfs fsadm: /dev/vg00/rlvol4 is currently 3072000 sectors - size will be increased
This was on a 11.31 system, it WAS mirrored, so learned a little. I ran the fsadm command first since I thought someone didnt' use all the extends (on this mirrored system).
# bdf /opt
Filesystem kbytes used avail %used Mounted on
/dev/vg00/lvol7 8192000 7985584 204896 97% /opt
# lvdisplay -v /dev/vg00/lvol7
--- Logical volumes ---
LV Name /dev/vg00/lvol7
...
Mirror copies 1
...
LV Size (Mbytes) 8000
Current LE 500
Allocated PE 1000
...
Allocation strict
so i ran the command ...
# fsadm -F vxfs -b 9712M /opt
UX:vxfs fsadm: ERROR: V-3-25811: cannot expand /dev/vg00/rlvol7 more than size of the underlying device - 8192000 sectors
someone thought since it was mirrored, all extents were actually used.
so did the math and doubled the space needed and it worked . . .
# lvextend -L 20000 /dev/vg00/lvol7
Logical volume "/dev/vg00/lvol7" has been successfully extended.
Volume Group configuration for /dev/vg00 has been saved in /etc/lvmconf/vg00.conf
# bdf /opt
Filesystem kbytes used avail %used Mounted on
/dev/vg00/lvol7 8192000 7985592 204888 97% /opt
obviously needed to do the fsadm command to compete the task.
# fsadm -F vxfs -b 10000M /opt
UX:vxfs fsadm: INFO: V-3-25942: /dev/vg00/rlvol7 size increased from 8192000 sectors to 10240000 sectors
