Cannot extend my /var filesystem.
lvextend -L 20000 /dev/vg00/lvol8.
Then I went to the console and booted the machine into single user mode to extend the FS
(hpux -is).
Then I tried to extend the file system
extendfs -F vxfs /dev/vg00/lvol8
but it gave me the error
extendfs: /dev/vg00/rlvol8 "cannot stat"
Does anyone know what this is all about?
This is HPUX 11.31 and all filesystems are vxfs.
Thanks for any help.

Re: Cannot extend my /var filesystem.
I was using the raw device but it still gave me the "cannot stat" error.
Figured it out though. I ran:
vgchange -a y /dev/vg00
and then
extendfs -F vxfs /dev/vg00/rlvol8 and it worked.

Re: Cannot extend my /var filesystem.
Maybe you should use:
#lvextend -L 20000M ...

Re: Cannot extend my /var filesystem.
Do you have online JFS. Try using fsadm if you have online jfs.

You should always point the raw logical-volumes if you are using "extendfs" command
please do man extendfs "example"
EXAMPLES
To increase the capacity of a filesystem created on a logical volume,
enter:
#umount /dev/vg00/lvol1
#lvextend -L larger_size /dev/vg00/lvol1
# extendfs /dev/vg00/rlvol1
Thanks,
Johnson
