HP-UX 11iv1 2TB lvol

[Douglas Henson]

I have a 2TB mount on my server from a va7400. I created a new vg with the "-s 32" setting and from 16 PV's of 128MB each. I tried to make a new lvol1 of 2TB but the size will only allow around 1TB.? The two displays are below

Douglas,

Can you post an lvdisplay output rather than the vgdisplay:

lvdisplay /dev/xpvg09/lvol1

[John Guster]

your xpvg09 has 32MB for each PE, not as you stated as 128MB. Can you post the output of vgdisplay -v vpvg09?

Duncan:

John the volume group was created with PE of 32 MB the PV are disks from an xp24000 lun size of 128MB x 16 to get to around 2TB

[Douglas Henson]

Duncan: this is the one that is working.

D'oh!

You are saying "-L 2000"

which is saying 2000MB

which is only 2GB

Try the lvextend with "-L 2097152"

I would do:
lvextend -l 65520 /dev/vpvg09/lvol1

use low case l.

then

fsadm -b 2096640m /x_clmmag

to extend the file system size.

Good luck.

[Douglas Henson]

thanks for the help.

fsadm command failed becasue you don't have online JFS licensed software. Glad to see other command went through.
Case is closed.
