Hi,

Prior to hpux 11.31 (without online jfs)
=============================================

ioscan -fnC disk
insf -eC disk
pvcreate /dev/rdsk/cxtxdx
vgextend vgxx /dev/dsk/cxtxdx
lvextend -L xxM /dev/vgxx/lvolxx
umount /xxx
extendfs -F vxfs /dev/vgxx/lvolxx
mount /xxx

Prior to hpux 11.31 (with online jfs)
=============================================


ioscan -fnC disk
insf -eC disk
pvcreate /dev/rdsk/cxtxdx
vgextend vgxx /dev/dsk/cxtxdx
lvextend -L xxM /dev/vgxx/lvolxx
fsadm -F vxfs -b xxxM /xxx ------> Online



IN HPUX 11.31 the OS can detect new luns automatically and created device files itself ,so you can skip insf step.
