Filesystem creation

[Mridul Dutta]

Hi Friends ,
I have one doubt abt filesystem crweation.

Suppose i have created a lvol with lvcreate , now i want to mount it in a directory or location. My question is it is possible to mount without creating filesystem example without creating filesystem using newfs -F vxfs .......

Next question is : how to change kernel parameter using command line???

Thanks n Regards

Shalom,

Process

lvcreate
lvextend (to change size)
newfs

No, the mount will fail without a filesystem.

kctune 11.23 and 11.31
kmtune 11.11 and before.

yeah,
very much agreed with steven that u cant mount without creating a file system.
so
1. lvcreate
2. newfs or mkfs
3. mount
