Re: Extending the VG

Then you need to umount the FS you like to extend.

Re: Extending the VG

Use the device file /dev/rdsk/c13t0d1 for the activity

1. Create Physical volume in the raw device

# pvcreate -f /dev/rdsk/c13t0d1

2. Extend the VG.

# vgextend /dev/vg_eva /dev/dsk/c13t0d1

> Check if the disk have been added to vg

# vgdisplay /dev/vg_eva

3. Extend the Logical Volume

# lvextend -L 125000 /dev/vg_eva/lvol3

# umount /oracle_eva

You could check the FS with the following command

# bdf | grep /dev/vg_eva/lvol3

5. Extend the Filesystem

Check the Filesystem for /dev/vg_eva/lvol3

# cat /etc/fstab | grep /dev/vg_eva/lvol3

>> If the File system is vxfs then do the following

# extendfs -F vxfs /dev/vg_eva/rlvol3
