increase fs /var

Question
I am not a hp admin but aix admin.
I am wondering if to increase the fs /var we really have to umount the fs so means stop the system ... just to do an extendlv ?
It is what I saw on man page of extendlv and that surprise me. On aix we can dynamically increase a fs and with version 5.3 can dynamically also reduce a fs. I would like to assume that on HP-UX we can also dynamically increase a fs... I hope so that I have to add some space to /var as it is a little full and the only files that I found big is belong to legato networker and don't know how to free space and nobodies no !

/var/nsr/index/hostname/db # ls -ltr
total 1033440
-rw------- 1 root root 472162304 Feb 16 10:51 sr.0
-rw------- 1 root root 28491776 Feb 16 10:56 sr_i0.0
-rw------- 1 root root 32768 Feb 16 11:11 sr_i1
-rw------- 1 root root 28336128 Feb 16 11:11 sr_i1.0
-rw------- 1 root root 8192 Feb 16 12:33 VolHdr
-rw------- 1 root root 32768 Feb 16 12:33 sr
-rw------- 1 root root 32768 Feb 16 12:33 sr_i0

Please if you can give me some help it will be cool.

Cheers.

Al.
