NEED STEPS TO PERFORM SPACE REALLOCATION ON AIX

[AIXdream]

Hi GUYS,

I need to allocate free blocks from one lv to another lv.


/dev/lv06 15.00 6.25 59% 11041 1% /stage
/dev/lv03 10.00 1.79 83% 303890 12% /aac

from /stage 5gb need to be reallocated to /aac. Please help.

Thanks

If they're both on the same vg, and both jfs2 (on AIX 5.3), you can just "smit chjfs2" to shrink one filesystem and grow the other.

hfaix is right just to add to his comment, you can use chfs command instead of going to the smit chjfs2

chfs -a size=-5G /stage
chfs -a size=+5G /acc

Assuming both of these fs are jfs2 and you are running on AIX 5.3.

Khalid
