Increases filesystem from a package

Hello,

I need to increase filesystem mounted by a package.

Should I increase filesystem in all nodes or just increasing in 1 node package and sizing will be updated?

Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,

Carles

Re: Increases filesystem from a package

If you are just increasing the size, NOT adding an additional disk, then you just need to do that on a single node. The size information will carry over between nodes.

No need to export and import the VG.

You can do it only on current active node where the package is running.

Since the VG information is saved in the disk itself, changes to the size allocation to a FS within the VG will need action on one node only.

Re: Increases filesystem from a package

Carles,
There are some quick ways,
if you have Online Jfs then;
1 -lvextend -L(new MB) /dev/vgname/lvolname
2 -fsadm -F vxfs -b (new MB)M /mount_point
but i also have onlinejfs and always think about Murphy so i go after my offline bck
if you do not have OnlineJfs
Then you have to go with "halting" package
so the steps like;
1 -vgchange -a y vgname
2 -vgchange -c n vgname
3 -lvextend - L /dev/vgname/lvolname
4 -extendfs -F /dev/vgname/rlvolname
5 -mount /dev/vgname/lvolname /mount_point
6 -bdf (check FS)
7 -umount /mount_point
8 -vgchange -c y vgname
9 -vgchange -a n vgname
10 -cmrunpkg your_package

Good Luck,
