How big do you want it to be? Or how much do you want to increase it by?
chfs -a size=+<number of 512 byte blocks to increase it by> <filesystem>
The amount increased will be rounded up to the next whole PP.
You also bump it up 128 MB at a time by:
chfs -a size=+1 <filesystem>

Thanks for the info on adding the disk. Now I am having a problem with
determining how big to increase the filesystem. What is the formula? I
would like to allocate all that is available on the volume group? I checked
the archives but following the formulas presented only increased it by
about 500mb. I'm sure I need to someone account for the 128 PP Size. Below
is the output from lsvg:
$<root>/ < 392 > # lsvg emcdatavg

Do an 'extendvg vgname hdiskname'
Increase the FS and the LV will fallow by doing a, 'chfs -a size=new_size
/fs_name'.

Subject: Adding Addl Disk to Volume Group
Sorry for newbie question. I am new to AIX and need to increase the size of
a logical volume by adding an additional EMC powerpath disk. I have already
done the work on the SAN but need help with the AIX commands to increase
the filesystem/logical volume/volume group. Can anyone help?
