unable to increase filesystem online

Hi
When I am trying to increase the filesystem online, I got the below error..

vxfs fsadm: /dev/vg00/lvol4 is not the root inode of a vxfs file sytem

The filesystem is VXFS and largefiles option is enabled

Re: unable to increase filesystem online

Hi,

Did your system use online JFS?

Re: unable to increase filesystem online

If you do not have online JFS, you must unmount your mount point first or If you have online JFS do this:
#fsadm -F vxfs -o largefiles /

Re: unable to increase filesystem online

hi,

check if u have Online JFS before doing what u r doing:

# swlist -l product|grep -i onlinejfs

if no OnlineJFS, then u have to unmount and run the command.

Re: unable to increase filesystem online


I think i need to mention this

I am trying to increase the /tmp filesystem
Is there any restrictions for this fs.

Re: unable to increase filesystem online

Hari,

I think your command had a syntax error. I think you used a command like this :

fsadm -F vxfs -b $newsize /dev/vg00/lvol4

is that right assumption ?

if it is your command was wrong.

instead use this

fsadm -F vxfs -b $newsize /tmp

hope this helps.

with OnlineJFS, thentry this:

# lvextend -l /dev/vg00/lvol4
# fsadm -F vxfs -b /tmp
