Online JFS Error

[remer]

Good Day.

I'm using a HP-UX 11.23 OS and someone installed an Online JFS which i think it was already included in HP-UX 11.23 OS.

Now i'm trying to extend a file using SAM and i'm recieving the following error:

"The LV cannot be extended until the file system is
able to be unmounted. Note that the fuser(1M) command can be used
outside of SAM to help determine what processes and users are
currently accessing this file system."

do i need to swremove the OnlineJFS installed? or i need to keep it on a HP-UX 11.23 OS?

thanks.

If you are getting this message then OnlineJFS is not licensed. In one sense, you already have OnlineJFS because all the underying pieces are in place; you simply haven't licensed it.

Execute vxlicense -p to see the current licensing status.

Pls send swlist output

if you using version 4.1.005..
OnlineJFS01 4.1.005 Online features of the VxFS

The new command...
SAM is still using:

fsadm -F xvfx -b 212992 /tmp

It should be using:

fsadm -F xvfs4.1 -b 212992 /tmp


# fsadm -F vxfs -b 212992 /tmp
mismatch : command version 35 - kernel version 33

# fsadm -F vxfs4.1 -b 212992 /tmp
UX:vxfs fsadm: INFO: V-3-23585: /dev/vg00/rtmp is currently 204800
sectors - size will be increased


It looks like SAM needs to change the scripts in
file /usr/sam/lib/fs/fs.tm

They reference "-F vxfs " in there a lot and it probably needs to
be "-F vxfs4.1 " for vxfs4.1 or something.

I guess maybe the vxfs4.1 engineers should have not created new option
names / directives and should have just replace xvfs or something.

So doing the "fsadm -F xvfs4.1 -b ..." succeeds outside of SAM.

SAM still needs to be fixed to work with xvfs4.1.

HOpe can help this...

here's the output:

"# vxlicense -p
vrts:vxlicense: INFO: No valid license installed"

but i also have a HP server which has no valid license but i can do a onlineJFS thru that server.

are another things that i need to check?

Remer,

Your online JFS license has expired, please refer my previous reply for procedure.
