Vxfs with large files

[Jacky Wing]

Hello,

I want to change my file system to support large files. I am on hp-ux 11.23. should I unmount my system or no need?

I will do:

- umount
- fsadm -F vxfs -o largefiles /dev/vgxx/rlvolx
- mount

what do you think about that?
Of course i will backup my data first.

Hi

Only fsadm -F vxfs -o largefiles /dev/vgxx/rlvolx

Think look like ok but please verify you convert the nolarge filesystem to largefilesystem only for HFS file system.

and take backup before execute the commands.

I would just do the fsadm and not bother back up the data.

I am on a cluster system, should I do this on both nodes? the file system is cluster aware.

Hi

You should run fsadm only one node. That's all
