Re: How to increase root file system size in HP-ux 11i V2?
Please run a vgdisplay -v on your vg00
If you have lvols please run also a lvdisplay -v on those logical volumes.
Do you have space to extend filesystem?
Are you going to use new disk?
Regards,
Jaime.

Re: How to increase root file system size in HP-ux 11i V2?
Best way is to ignite your workstation - and resize the partitions.
Please post the vgdisplay -v vg00
It may be possible to resize without ignit - depending on your layout.
Still, ignite is the best and prefered and supported way.

Re: How to increase root file system size in HP-ux 11i V2?
Note, there is no such thing as a 32 bit install of HP-UX 11i v2.
It is 64 bit only.
The only reliable way to expand root is to do a make_tape_recovery or make_net_recovery followed by a recovery of the system.
There is an option to do keyboard intervention from the console that permits expansion of the root fs.

Re: How to increase root file system size in HP-ux 11i V2?
I think that if you have added a new disc to the vg then you can free space with the command pvmove to move lvols after lvol3 (root fs) to the new disk.
Example:
pvmove -n /dev/vg01/lvol4 /dev/dsk/cXtXdX /dev/dsk/cYtYdY
/dev/dsk/cXtXdX (source_path)
/dev/dsk/cYtYdY (destination_path)
and so for lvol5 ...
Then you can extend the root filesystem.
Or you can mirror the lvol4 lvol5 ... to new disk and then reduce the mirror from source_disk to free space after the root lvol.
I have not never tried this solutions personally, I ask confirmation for this to others.

Re: How to increase root file system size in HP-ux 11i V2?
In that case, you could mv home to a new home (create a new lvol then temporarily mount it to something like /newhome, then copy /home to /newhome, unmount /home and /newhome, then mount the "new" home to /home)
After that, lvremove lvol4, then you can extend / (lvol3).

fsadm -b 882M /

1. Create a system recovery tape using make_net_recovery or make_tape_recovery -I
2. Boot from archive
3. Resize the logical volumes in the Ignite interface
4. Allow Ignite to recreate vg00 using new sizes, and restore all the data.
