Netapp filer LUN Resize. Commands to run on Solaris afterwards.

UNIX Solaris
1

Hi,

I need to increase a veritas filesystem I have currently mounted on a Solaris 10 server. We can resize the LUN on the NetApp filer no problem. What I need to know is what do I do next on the Solaris 10 server I have so that it will see the increase in size. Do I run 'devfsadm' to recognise the increase in LUN size on the fly? I don't really want to have to unmount the file system or reboot the server as it is a failry important oracle server. Your help is much appreciated. Thanks.

devfsadm is not necessary... only if you add a new device! if i remeber right there should be a command something like "vxresize"... but the infos you gave are a little bit sparse...

  • how is the storage attached
  • how is the filesystem build
  • ...

Do you have the netapp host services running on the Solaris server or are you just mounting over the network??
