We installed the 2.4.7 kernel on 5 full pack mini disks as follows:
/dev/dasda1
/dev/dasdb1
/dev/dasdc1 lvmsuse
/dev/dasdd1 lvmsuse
/dev/dasde1 lvmsuse
Our parmfile is:
dasd=0200,0100,0101,0102,0103 root=/dev/dasdb1 noinitrd
so dasda1 is the swap file, and dasdb1 is the root, and dasdc1 starts our LVM, where
we have /usr mounted.
I know there are ways to shrink the LVM, but what would be the best way to shrink down
our dasdb1 where our root is mounted? This device is a full pack mini disk(3390), and
it is way over-allocated
for what it is actually using.
In OS/390 USS, for a similar problem, we did a pax on /, and unpaxed to a smaller file
system. I don't see pax as part of our operating system, but maybe there is a better
way to do this.
