vxfs newfs: no space allocated to device /dev/vg00/rstripe

[Jagadesh]

Dear All,

We are facing the problem while creating filesystem using newfs.

The error/output can be found below.

# lvcreate -L 200 -n stripe vg00
Logical volume "/dev/vg00/stripe" has been successfully created

with character device "/dev/vg00/rstripe".
lvcreate: Warning: The physical volume "/dev/dsk/c2t5d0" is not
available for allocation.
lvcreate: Not enough free physical extents available.
Logical volume "/dev/vg00/stripe" could not be extended.
Run the "lvextend" command to create space on the Logical

Volume.

# newfs -F vxfs /dev/vg00/rstripe
vxfs newfs: no space allocated to vxfs newfs: no space allocated to

Kindly help me out in rectifying the same.

Thanks

You do not have enough available physical extents on the disk in vg00 (/dev/dsk/c2t5d0) to create the 200 MB volume.

If you post the output of 'vgdisplay -v vg00' we can confirm this for you.

Please find the output of

# vgdisplay -v vg00
