I presume you mean "file system" (your subject line says "system file")?
1. Yes. You need to know which volume groups these logical volumes belong to (looking at the names, I would guess qa2vg).
Run lsvg <volume group name>. Perhaps the space you need is already available.
2. Use chfs to add space to a filesystem
where +X is to increase by an amount (like +1G, +100M, etc. and =X is to increase it to X (like =1G, 100M, etc.). Read the man page for chfs.
3. Have the disks been added? Did you run cfgmgr, then have a look with lspv. You should change the healthcheck interval to 60 using chdev. Extend the volume group(s) with the new disk(s). Read man extendvg. You may need to run chlv -x to increase the maximum LV's for the logical volumes. If chfs fails because of that, it will tell you what the value should be. Are the logical volumes striped (lslv will show this.)?
4. df -g should be sufficient.
Here are some more information:
1. YES, all are in qa2vg volume group.
2. Understood. Thanks!
3. This is the output of lsvg qa2vg:
4. Understood.
Does the information in number 3 helps to explain a bit better what to do or check in number 3?
Thanks again!

to get a look at the distrbution.
Now is this san disk, or SSA or local scsi?
but the command to extend could be different if say AIX 5.2 or AIZ 5.3 ML8
maybe a
so we know.
Lets start with some of this info first.
Output of lsvg -p qa2vg:
2. Disk is allocated to SAN
3.
Thanks!
