Greetings,
I have a 4 node TruCluster connected to an EVA5000 SAN. I have in the
past successfully resized ADVFS disk domains where they are connected to
the c partition of a device.
1. grow the lun
2. disklabel -wr <device>
3. mount -u -o entend <mountpoint>
The situation I have now that I have not been able to resolve is:
On dsk2 I have 3 separate advfs domains (cluster_root - dsk2a,
cluster_usr - dsk2g, cluster_var - dsk2h).
What I want to do is grow the h partition only.
Disklabel -wr dsk2 fails with (disklabel: ioctl DIOCSDINFO: Open
partition would move or shrink)
Disklabel -e dsk2 and modifying:
(cylinders: new value
sectors/unit: new value
the size for partition c to be the new whole disk size
the size for partition h to include the new available additional space)
fails with:
:q
write new label? [y]:
disklabel: New partition 'c' overlaps with in-use partition 'a'
Allow unused partition 'c' to overlap in-use partition 'a'? [n] y
disklabel: New partition 'c' overlaps with in-use partition 'g'
Allow unused partition 'c' to overlap in-use partition 'g'? [n] y
disklabel: New partition 'c' overlaps with in-use partition 'h'
Allow unused partition 'c' to overlap in-use partition 'h'? [n] y
disklabel: Partition 'h' is in-use; Cannot modify its size or
location.'
re-edit the label? [y]:
If it had succeeded I would then execute " # mount -u -o extend /var"
Any suggestions as to a way forward would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Bruce
