Hi All,
I am new to AIX.
I need to extend one Logical Volume it is jfs type on On AIX 5.1.
I have enough free space on the volume group for this extension
Can I use smitty chjfs , will this do it without interruptions to the application that is using this Logical Volume.

Thanks

Hi Scampi

You can change the size of you filesystem without interruptions of the aplication on AIX. Use smitty chfs or
chfs -a size=+add size /filesystem.

Example : chfs -a size=+100000 /tmp ( Add 50mb in /tmp)
