Converting Blocks to megabytes and gigabytes.
Sorry for the simple question.
I am new to Unix and Unix AIX.
I increased a file system the other day but cheated and used a conversion calculator.
Could you good people tell me the best way to increase a file system that is in 512 byte blocks.
Say the file system is 100mb and I wanted to increase to 200mb how would I work this out?
Thanks for your help

NAME
showfdmn - Display attributes of an AdvFS file domain
SYNOPSIS
/sbin/showfdmn [-k] domain
OPTIONS
Displays the total number of blocks and the number of free blocks in terms of 1K blocks.
OPERANDS
Specifies the name of an existing AdvFS file domain.
DESCRIPTION
The showfdmn command displays the attributes of a file domain and detailed information about each volume in the file domain.
The command displays the following file domain attributes: Id
A unique number (in hexadecimal format) that identifies a file domain. Date Created
The day, month, and time that a file domain was created. LogPgs
The number of 8-kilobyte pages in the transaction log of the specified file domain. Version
An internal-use-only version number for the AdvFS on-disk data structures. This number is not related to the version number of the
base operating system. Domain Name
The name of the file domain.
The command also displays the following volume information: Vol
The volume number within the file domain. An L next to the number indicates that the volume contains the transaction log. 512-Blks
The size of the volume in 512-byte blocks. 1K-Blks
The size of the volume in 1K blocks. Free
The number of blocks in a volume that are available for use. % Used
The percent of volume space that is currently allocated to files or metadata. Cmode
The I/O consolidation mode. The default mode is on. Rblks
The maximum number of 512-byte blocks read from the volume at one time. Wblks
The maximum number of 512-byte blocks written to the volume at one time. Vol Name
The name of the special device file for the volume.
For multi-volume file domains, the showfdmn command also displays the total volume size, total number of free blocks, and the total percent
of volume space currently allocated.
RESTRICTIONS
A file domain must be active before the showfdmn command can display volume information. A file domain is active when at least one fileset
in the file domain is mounted.
EXAMPLES
The following example displays domain information for the usr_domain file domain: % showfdmn usr_domain
Id Date Created LogPgs Version Domain Name 2b5361ba.000791be Tue Jan 12 16:26 1999 256 4 usr_domain
