Re: [Veritas-vx] A question regarding to resize the UFS filesystem through vxvm volume

2010-02-26 Thread Sebastien DAUBIGNE




As in previous versions, if the volume is striped, you should firstly
relayout the volume to add one column to your stripe.

vxassist relayout vol ncol=...  you_new_lun

Then grow the volume :

vxassist growby vol ...

Then grow the filesystem :

growfs

Hi Experts,
  
A question regarding to resize the UFS filesystem through vxvm volume,
here's the situation:
  
There are three vxvm striped volumes created within same
diskgroup which 
accross on 5 individual LUNs,and one of volume capacity is used up and
need
expand,can we do that as:
  
- add one or more(less then 5) physical LUN with same size as above
LUNs to OS
- join new assigned LUNs into above vxvm diskgroup
- resize the volume to be expanded online by "vxresize" command
- growup ufs filesystem online
  
In earlier vxvm such as 3.x,above attempt may fail as the target volume
is 
accrossing on 5 physical LUNs and must add new disks by the same amount
(means at least 5 new LUNs need adding) if resize the volume online.
  
I wonder if the latest vxvm 5.x can support it ?
  
Thanks.
Regards,
Simon

you to use a relayout  , so add the disks to your DG , and do a relayout   ,
now you will have a new DG with more volumes in stripe ,  (8 volumes , in
case if you added 3 more luns) , now you can resize your logical volumes in
striped mode.

You can use SFM 2.x which will allow you to get a centralized
perspective of your datacenter, freely available for download from the
following location:
http://www.symantec.com/business/storage-foundation-manager

It is very easy to install and won't take more than 15 mins to setup a
central server. The client side package is very small in size and you
get possibly get you environment being managed via SFM in very less
time.

 

Here are some screen casts that will walk you through the CMs install
procedure:

Let me know if you require any more information on the same front.

Subject: [Veritas-vx] Graphical or Excel

 

 

Anybody have any tools or know of a tool that will interpret a vxprint
into either a graph based layout or a Excel. Quite frankly any
manipulation will be helpful. Would love to have a vea simulator !!

 

I am doing a storage assessments with only the vxprint to work with and
it's a pain.

 

Any suggestions are appreciated
