I am not sure if commands like df -g or chfs commands are working on vio servers (as these are managed by another team in my company) but I would try to find out if I can make one of the existing filesystems either smaller or can live without a mirror for it - I would say /home would be such a candidate as it seems relatively huge and it doesnt necessarily have to be mirrored - depending on how full it is you could try to reduce the size by 1 GB and give the space to /usr instead with chfs -a size=-1G /home and chfs -a size=+1G /usr ?

That's exactly what I'll do, I'll reduce the size of /home as it's huge.
Two things I don't understand though:
1. I deleted a huge 20G SAVSYS from /var/vio/VMLibrary but it didn't free up any PPs on either physical disk. Would I have to delete files then reduce the filesystem using chfs before I see any free PPs?
2. If /var/vio/VMLibrary isn't mirrored how does it appear on both physical disks?
