backup data and do fresh install
IMHO, I suggest to do a fresh install. Since you are revamping your filesystems' sizes and types, this is what I would recommend. It may be a few more steps, but this way you can start fresh and not have to be concerned about altering existing filesystems.
Save all your data via tar or some other method. Copy all of your config files and startup files via tar as well, /etc/* & /sbin/init.d/* & /etc/rc.config.d/* and any other places you have config files.
If you are going to the trouble of recreating filesystems, changing their file types, and increasing their sizes, which I recommend. Then do a new install overwriting the current OS.
Here are some recommendations from my Install group.
Filesystem ... ... ... Size (mb)
/stand ... ... ... 200 HFS
/ ... ... ... ... ... 252
/opt ... ... ... 1,400
/usr ... ... ... 1,400
/var ... ... ... 1,600
These should be big enough when you decide to upgrade to 11.x.
Here is what my 11.i box looks like.
# bdf |grep vg00
/dev/vg00/root ...... 258048 58901 186743 24% /

lvremove
LVREMOVE(8) System Manager's Manual LVREMOVE(8)
NAME
lvremove - remove a logical volume
SYNOPSIS
lvremove [-A|--autobackup y|n] [-d|--debug] [-f|--force] [-h|-?|--help] [--noudevsync] [-t|--test] [-v|--verbose] LogicalVolumePath [Logi-
calVolumePath...]
DESCRIPTION
lvremove removes one or more logical volumes. Confirmation will be requested before deactivating any active logical volume prior to
removal. Logical volumes cannot be deactivated or removed while they are open (e.g. if they contain a mounted filesystem). Removing an
origin logical volume will also remove all dependent snapshots.
If the logical volume is clustered then it must be deactivated on all nodes in the cluster before it can be removed. A single lvchange com-
mand issued from one node can do this.
OPTIONS
See lvm(8) for common options.
-f, --force
Remove active logical volumes without confirmation.
--noudevsync
Disable udev synchronisation. The process will not wait for notification from udev. It will continue irrespective of any possible
udev processing in the background. You should only use this if udev is not running or has rules that ignore the devices LVM2 cre-
ates.
EXAMPLES
Remove the active logical volume lvol1 in volume group vg00 without asking for confirmation:
lvremove -f vg00/lvol1
Remove all logical volumes in volume group vg00:
lvremove vg00
