Extend filesystem

[vat]

Dear All,

O/S : HP-UX 11.31

We have two servers which are in cluster and sharing the disk space from EVA.

I have attached the output pf bdf and vgdisplay command.


I want to extend follwing filesystem from
2 GB to 10 GB

/dev/vg02/lvol5 -- /oracle/PRD

I request you please guide me for the same.

As I am new to HP unix step by step guidance will be helpful to me either using command line or SAM.

Just increase the logical volume with lvextend - you have 13568MB available.

#lvextend -L 10240M /dev/vg02/lvol5

and if you have OnlineJFS - extend file system without unmount:

#fsadm -f vxfs -b 10240M /oracle/PRD


regards,
ivan

Thanks for your quick response.

We don't have online JFS.

So I will proceed with following steps

1. lvextend -L 10240M /dev/vg02/lvol5
2. umount dev/vg02/lvol5

3. mount dev/vg02/lvol5 /oracle/PRD


I have confusion related to cluster. Two servers which are in cluster are sharing this filesystem.

whether i have to include some steps for the same?

How if we have the online jFS..
but when issue the below command

#vxlicense -p

shows that ..the JFS is not licensed..can we proceed with fsadm?

Hi Vat,

IF you d'not have ONLINE _JFS .. :) no choice dude .. :( you have to umount and extendfs

Questions:-

/dev/vg02/lvol5 -- /oracle/PRD --> its part of your cluster "Package" ..?

if (Yes ) you need halt the pkg and follow as per below

# cmhaltpkg -v -n

(package will be halted)

than proceed to lvextend

# vgchange -c n /dev/vg02

# vgchange -a y /dev/vg02

# lvextend -L /dev/vg02/lvol5

# extendfs -F vxfs /dev/vg02/rlvol5

# vgchange -a n /dev/vg02

# vgchange -c y /dev/vg02

# cmrunpkg -n -v

# cmmodpkg -e


Hi Idham,

>>> How if we have the online jFS..

Old Online JFS licenses have expired. If swisntall shows Online JFS is installed, determine whether Online JFS is still active. When this feature was originally included in HP-UX, the license was set to expire in June 2007.

# vxlicrep

2. To update the Online JFS license from "expired/DEMO" to
"active/Permanent", reinstall the B3929CA product from the Application CD/DVD media.

Per http://www.hp.com/softwarereleases/releases-media2/media/5013-4941.htm

NOTE that the swinstall will not interfere with critical application activities, nor will it require a reboot.

If necessary, use the http://licensing.hp.com website to acquire a codeword.


And don't forget to grow the file system after growing the logical volume!
