increasing file system size

Hi
Can anyone explain me how to increase the filesystem size. We can do it when the system is running? It needs an reboot?

Roger,

What sort of a Filesystem is it?Let us know the details.
If it's a Soft partition created from a mirror(SVM),it can be extended using growfs.

Then why bother asking the question in the first place. If you can't help us help you, why should we bother helping you?
