NAME
extendfs (vxfs) — extend a VxFS file system size
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/extendfs
[-F
vxfs]
[-q]
[-v]
[-s
size]
special
DESCRIPTION
If the original VxFS
file system image created on
special
does not make use of all of the available space,
extendfs
can be used to increase the capacity of a VxFS
file system by updating the file system structure
to include the extra space.
The command-line parameter
special
specifies the device special file
of either a logical volume or a disk partition.
If
special
refers to a mounted file system,
special
must be unmounted before
extendfs
can be run (see
mount(1M)).
Options
extendfs
recognizes the following options:
- -F vxfs
Specify the VxFS file system type.
- -q
Query the size of
special.
No file system extension will be done.
- -v
Verbose flag.
- -s size
Specifies the number of
DEV_BSIZE
blocks to be added to the file system.
If
size
is not specified, the maximum possible size is used.
EXAMPLES
To increase the capacity of
a file system created on a logical volume,
enter:
lvextend -L larger_size
/dev/vg00/lvol1
extendfs -F vxfs /dev/vg00/rlvol1
mount /dev/vg00/lvol1 mount_directory
