Expand / using interactive igntie

[JohnMuir]

Can anyone give me a procedure for expanding the root file system using the interactive make_tape_recovery? Thanks.

James,

In an interactive install, you need to get into the file systems section and size each of your root logical volumes according to your needs. Basically, that's it, you go through the root file systems one by one, enlarging or shrinking as need be.

So this would just be a menu that comes up with the interactive restore?

Hi James:

Simply boot from your Ignite recovery tape. Then choose "Install HP-UX/Media Only". Select the "Advanced Installation" tab. Once there, select the "Filesystems" tab. You can resize any or all filesystems there and start your recovery.

Regards!

Thanks, I think that answers my question.
