It shouldn't be a problem.

But you can always use 'fsadm','vxassist' in place of 'vxresize'.

Use fsadm to shrink the filesystem first, then use vxassist to shrink
the volume.

I think all 'fsgen' does here is give a hint that the filesystem should
be flushed before shrinking the volume, so there shouldn't be a big
problem with using 'vxresize'.
