Hello all, Forgive me if I'm being stupid but I'm currently trying to grow a Veritas Filesystem in a guest LDOM without any success. The Veritas documentation suggests that it is possible: first grow the VxVM volume in the control domain using "vxassist -g diskgroup growto volume length" and then grow the file system in the guest domain using "/usr/lib/fs/vxfs/fsadm -b num_blocks mount_point". The Vx docs state that VxVM must be in the control domain and VxFS in the guest.
The issue I seem to be having is that when I export the volume to the guest LDOM, it sees it as a normal disk (i.e. 7 slices). Consequently I go into format and partition it, label it and then apply a VxFS to it before mounting. After growing the volume in the control domain the guest domain still sees the original size volume (checked with format) and so it can't grow the file system. Have I missed something obvious? Before starting out, I was hoping that I would simply be able to put VxFS on a Vx volume in the control domain and then export it to the guest domain - similar to what one would do with ZFS. My experience and the Vx docs suggest that this is not possible. Has anyone out there been successful in growing a Vx file system in a guest LDOM. If you have, and you can give me the "recipe" then I would be very grateful. Thanks, Stuart
