Extend /tmp

I need to extend /tmp and would like to get the command to extend.

/dev/vg00/lvol4 /tmp - 512MB like to make it double that.

Re: Extend /tmp

The command would be lvextend, do a man on it and take a look at the examples. The problem you're going to have is that you need to be able to unmount it and the only viable way to do that is to go to single user mode. Of course if you have OnlineJFS, then this can all be done online with the fsadm command.

You also need available disk space in Volume Group vg00 to extend the Logical Volume lvol4. Using vgdisplay -v vg00 to see whether there are spaces available there.
