Re: Split vxfs volume

Hi!

Can you clarify - you want to divide already formatted logical volume vg00/data with data on it without loosing the information?

If you have purchased onlinejfs - you can do this online using online resize, if not, the way to do it is backup, delete logical volume "data" and create two volumes instead.

 

Best regards,

Philipp.
