I am running solaris 10 with Veritas. I want to extend a filesystem. It's an oracle partition (/ora12). How can I find out if there is space available to expand the filesystem and then how does one extend it.
I'm from the HPUX world and so LVM was always how I did things.
Thanks

OK I'm sure this question has been posed far too many times.
I have solaris 10 x86 with NO Veritas or Disksuite filesystems. Below is the output of df -k

Hello
I need to expand a filesystem is full, but I understand that for this I need a volume manager like SVM or Veritas. I have installed solaris 10 but I give it a metastat and tells me there is no database, as if the installation does not have the sudmirrors attachments.

Hi,
I wanted to find out that in my database server which filesystems are shared storage and which filesystems are local. Like when I use df -k, it shows "filesystem" and "mounted on" but I want to know which one is shared and which one is local.

Hi guys!
Could you tell me what's the difference of filesystem of Solaris to filesystem of Windows? I need to compare both.

swapon
SWAPON(8) System Manager's Manual SWAPON(8)NAME
swapon - specify additional device for paging and swapping
SYNOPSIS
swapon -a
swapon name ...
DESCRIPTION
Swapon is used to specify additional devices on which paging and swapping are to take place. The system begins by swapping and paging on
only a single device so that only one disk is required at bootstrap time. Calls to swapon normally occur in the system multi-user initial-
ization file /etc/rc making all swap devices available, so that the paging and swapping activity is interleaved across several devices.
Normally, the -a argument is given, causing all devices marked as ``sw'' swap devices in /etc/fstab to be made available.
The second form gives individual block devices as given in the system swap configuration table. The call makes only this space available
to the system for swap allocation.
SEE ALSO swapon(2), init(8)FILES
/dev/[ru][pk]?b normal paging devices
BUGS
There is no way to stop paging and swapping on a device. It is therefore not possible to make use of devices which may be dismounted dur-
ing system operation.
swapon is not implemented in 2.11BSD.
