Need help with File Systems...

[franksoprano]

I am having trouble increasing my file system sizes.. when i run smitty fs and try to add additional space to the file system it returns with the following:

0516-404 allocp: This system cannot fulfill the allocation request.There are not enough free partitions or not enough physical volumes to keep strictness and satisfy allocation requests. The command should be retried with different allocation characteristics.

------------

here is my df -k:

Filesystem 1024-blocks Free %Used Iused %Iused Mounted on
/dev/hd4 2260992 1438452 37% 1371 1% /
/dev/hd2 786432 15872 98% 23997 13% /usr
/dev/hd9var 16384 13760 17% 220 6% /var
/dev/hd3 98304 44684 55% 3328 14% /tmp
/dev/hd1 966656 935808 4% 21 1% /home
/dev/datalv 1638400 1263988 23% 2232 1% /datafs

I have 2 4.5Gig drives in my system with netscape and base os thats it...

What do I have to do to increase the FS?

Thanks!

Just my 2 cents, no need to stripe rootvg... as long as it only contains the OS. You'll get more of a performance boost if you can tune your box to page less. Once a disk read is called for, it's all molasses. Now, striping the db datafiles, that's another story and something I don't know a lot about. IBM Certified -- AIX 4.3 Obfuscation
