Quick Question on Filesystem
I have an AIX filesystem at 100% and I need to increase it by 30gb. Please give me the command to do this. Thanks in advance.

I tried this command and got this error:

chfs -a size=+500M /dev/test1223
0516-404 allocp: This system cannot fulfill the allocation request.
There are not enough free partitions or not enough physical volumes
to keep strictness and satisfy allocation requests. The command
should be retried with different allocation characteristics.

What steps should I take to make this work, and I do mean detailed steps. Thanks.

LEARN ABOUT OPENSOLARIS

dev

dev(7FS)							   File Systems 							  dev(7FS)

NAME

       dev - Device name file system

DESCRIPTION

       The  dev  filesystem  manages  the  name  spaces  of devices under the Solaris operating environment. The global zone's instance of the dev
       filesystem is mounted during boot on /dev.

       A subdirectory under /dev may have unique operational semantics. Most of the common device names under /dev are	created  automatically	by
       devfsadm(1M).   Others,	such  as  /dev/pts,  are dynamic and reflect the operational state of the system. You can manually generate device
       names for newly attached hardware by invoking devfsadm(1M) or implicitly, by indirectly causing	a  lookup  or  readdir	operation  in  the
       filesystem to occur.  For example, you can discover a disk that was attached when the system was powered down (and generate a name for that
       device) by invoking format(1M)).

FILES

       /dev    Mount point for the /dev filesystem in the global zone.

SEE ALSO

       devfsadm(1M), format(1M), devfs(7FS)

NOTES

       The global /dev instance cannot be unmounted.

SunOS 5.11							    9 June 2006 							  dev(7FS)
