Increasing a striped mountpoint

Hello,

We are trying to increase a logical volume which is striped. We get the following message;

The command used to resize a VxFS file system has failed. The stderr output from the command is shown below.
vxfs fsadm: /usr/stx/spool is not the root inode of a vxfs file sytem

We are running HP-UX 11.00.

Re: Increasing a striped mountpoint

Hi:

I presume you have licensed Online JFS since you indicate you are expanding the filesystem with 'fsadm'.

Is the filesystem mounted?

Regards!

Re: Increasing a striped mountpoint

fsadm gives this kind of message when the mountpoint is not good check the mountpoint.

Good Luck!!!

Re: Increasing a striped mountpoint

Hello again,

Yes we have online JFS and it is licensed. Everything is mounted (but possibly in the wrong order). Below is the order in which they were mounted. We have tried to unmount them but get the error message "umount: cannot unmount /usr/stx/db/tool/prod : Block device required" for each mountpoint.

mount /dev/vg01/lvol2 /usr/stx/db/tool/ting
mount /dev/vg01/lvol3 /usr/stx/db/tool/utool
mount /dev/vg01/lvol4 /usr/stx/db/tool
mount /dev/vg01/lvol5 /usr/stx/etc
mount /dev/vg01/lvol6 /usr/stx/homes
mount /dev/vg01/lvol7 /usr/stx/patches
mount /dev/vg01/lvol8 /usr/stx/prog/ops/interface/dump
mount /dev/vg01/lvol9 /usr/stx/prog
mount /dev/vg01/lvol10 /usr/stx/spool
mount /dev/vg01/lvol11 /usr/stx

Thanks!!!!
