How to grow my files System?

Dear Gurus of Unix.
When I Put this command:

Code:

#  iostat -E
cmdk0     Soft Errors: 0 Hard Errors: 0 Transport Errors: 0
Model: SAMSUNG SV4012H Revision:  Serial No: 0540J1BTC53208  Size: 40.06GB <40060403712 bytes>

I observe that my Hard Disk has 40GB
but when I run this command

Code:

# df -h
Filesystem             size   used  avail capacity  Mounted on
/dev/dsk/c0d0s0        494M   410M    34M    93%    /

                       4.1G   2.4G   1.6G    60%    /lib/libc.so.1

/dev/dsk/c0d0s3        140M    67M    59M    54%    /var
swap                   661M   458M   204M    70%    /tmp
swap                   204M    24K   204M     1%    /var/run
/dev/dsk/c0d0s5        826M   561M   207M    74%    /opt
/dev/dsk/c0d0s7        5.2G   127M   5.0G     3%    /export/home
/dev/dsk/c0d0s1        435M   285M   107M    73%    /usr/openwin
#

I observe that I only use 16 GB

The question is:
Why I have three files System with the same name swap?

Code:

# df -h | grep swap
swap                   153M   896K   152M     1%    /etc/svc/volatile
swap                   610M   458M   152M    76%    /tmp
swap                   152M    24K   152M     1%    /var/run

and how to use all 40 GB of my hard disk?

Regards
Andres
