Rename a filesystem 1

[june54]

Hi folks

Is there a AIX command that would allow me to rename a filesystem .... example /abc I want rename to /cba .. Or do I need to remove and recreate... Trying to find a quick way of building a system.....

Thanks

Sure is. chfs will do what you're looking for. You'll have to unmount it first. A man page on chfs will tell you all you want to know and much, much more...

You can also rename it in smitty. Again, you'll have to unmount it first before renaming it.

Hi June you need to umount file system before you rename .
