Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users How to re-allocate disk space on solaris 10 Post 302099576 by DukeNuke2 on Wednesday 13th of December 2006 02:36:44 AM

slice7 IS mounted on export/home! if you create /u01/app/oracle it is on the / filesystem on slice0.
if you like to have a new filesystem /u01/..... you have to add a new disk to the system or shrink /export/home (slice7) and create a new slice on the disk. if there is no needed data on slice7, boot with cd and make a new layout with "format" edit /etc/vfstab and you are done. (all data on the affected slices will be lost!!!)
if you need to save the data, you need a second disk and the tool "lu". the tool can merge or splitt filesystems an all you need is a reeboot after all is done.

hth,
