Increase the /usr PP (Physical Partition) number with the command:
chlv -x 512 hd2
Mount /tmp with the command :
mount /dev/hd3 /tmp
Note: If the tmp logical volume name is different from /dev/hd3 the migration will fail. It is recommended that your /tmp file system has at least 40 MB of free space; if necessary, free in /tmp or extend the file system with SMIT or the chfs command (example here to increase /tmp with 20,000 512 blocks = 10 MB) :
chfs -a size='+20000' /tmp
Be aware that if the disk is completely full, you may not be able to increase the size of the /tmp or /etc if they are too small. If this is the case, make a backup (smit mksysb), and restore with the shrink option. The minimum free disk space required is 200 MB. Check the rootvg place and PP size with the command:
lsvg rootvg
If you have a system disk less than 4GB or if the PP size is 4MB, it is better to extend the hd5 partition. If you do not extend hd5, you may have the following problem:
0301-161 bosboot: dd failed to copy boot image
0301-165 bosboot: WARNING! System not bootable
To extend the hd5 partition:
check the PP number of hd5 with the command:
lspv -p hdiskXX| grep -i boot (hdiskXX is rootvg)
Only 1 PP : 1-1 used outer edge hd5 boot N/A
if the PP number is 1 extend it with the command:
extendlv hd5 1
Note : the two hd5 PP have to be contiguous.
Two PP not contiguous :1-1 used outer edge hd5 boot N/A
13-13 used outer edge hd5 boot N/A
If it is not, you have to remove hd5 and create it again with the commands:
rmlv -f hd5
mklv -y hd5 -t boot -u2 rootvg 2 hdiskXX
lspv -p hdiskXX | grep -i boot (for checking)
( Two PP contiguous : 162-163 used outer middle hd5 boot N/A)
bosboot -a -d /dev/ipldevice

partitio
PARTITION(8) System Manager's Manual PARTITION(8)
NAME
partition - make a partition table
SYNOPSIS
partition [-mf] device [type:]size[+*] ...
DESCRIPTION
Partition makes a partition table on device using the types and sizes given. It may be used in combination with repartition(8) for auto-
matic installation of Minix.
You may give up to four type:size[+*] specifications for the partitions. You may also specify holes before, between, and after the parti-
tions. A hole differs from a partition specification by not having a type.
The first hole is by default 1 sector to make space for the primary bootstrap and the partition table. The other holes are 0.
The type field is the type of the partitition in hexadecimal. The size field is the partition's size in sectors. The + or * may option-
ally be added to indicate that the partition must be expanded to contain any leftover space on the device or to mark the partition active.
Partitions are padded out to cylinder boundaries, except for the first one, it starts on track 1. Some operating systems care about this.
Minix and MS-DOS do not.
OPTIONS
-m Minix only, no need to pad partitions. This is the default for subpartition tables.
-f Force making a partition table even if the device is too small.
EXAMPLE
partition /dev/hd0 01:16384 81:40000 81:2880* 06:20000+
Partitions disk 0 into an 8 Mb DOS partition, 20 Mb Minix /usr, 1.44 Mb Minix / (active), and a DOS partition of at least 10 Mb at the end
of the disk. (06:0+ would have been ok too, it's just a sanity check.)
