using link for space issues.
/dev/vg00/lvol6 3072000 1918714 1084703 64% /opt
/dev/vg00/lvol10 3584000 285320 3103089 8% /opt/tools
/opt/tools is not used much but we have lots of space on that. we need to install a s/w on /opt and it requires about 1GB space. Can i install that s/w (so that it is accessible from /opt but the actual s/w shd reside in /opt/tools), i think this can be done by soft link. Can someone please help so that we could get rid of the space problem?
Thanks
Terry

Re: using link for space issues.
You can check the free PEs in /usr/sbin/vgdisplay vg00 output and then u can plan for lvextend. followed by fsadm command to increase the filesystem size.

Re: using link for space issues.
If the installation procedure removes the whole tree before starting, you may have to move the tree to /opt/tools and add a softlink after.

Re: using link for space issues.
vgdisplay vg00|grep Size
Multiplying the results of Free PE with Size would give you the Free Space (MB) left in vg00. If it is reasonable size, then as Mridhul said, you can increase the /opt online if you have Online JFS installed.
Otherwise, a soft link would do, if you want to get it from the /opt itself.
cd /opt/tools
mkdir newapp (give the correct dir name)
ln -s /opt/tools/newapp /opt/newapp (here also give the correct dir name)
cd /opt/newapp
bdf . (current file system will show /opt/tools)
Regards.

Re: using link for space issues.
Use the softlink as above
or
one of this:
Total size of lvol10 is 3.4GB
used 278MB
Free 3.4GB
Depending on the contents on /opt/tools, either you can
remove the lvol10 and give all the space to /opt or
reduce the /opt/tools to 2GB and give the other 1.5 GB to /opt. Unmounting the file systems are required for this.
What version of HP-UX you are using.
