Operating Systems Linux Red Hat How to resize filesystem by resizing the LUN without impact to applications.? Post 302830251 by rveri on Monday 8th of July 2013 11:15:06 AM

If you use hp-ux you can resize the lun (i.e increase the lun size), and in os side you can use
Code:
vgmodify

to get the new size reflect and you can extend it, in hp-ux 11.31.
However the standard method and safe method would be :
- adding more lun to the VG.
- extend the vg with the lun/PVs.
- then extend the Filesystem online.(that means without unmounting the FS),

Hope this helps.

NAME
tgt-setup-lun - creates a target, adds a device to the target and defines initiators that can connect to the target SYNOPSIS
tgt-setup-lun -d device -n target_name [initiator_IP1 initiator_IP2 ...] [-h] DESCRIPTION
Starts tgtd if necessary and creates a target according to the supplied target_name. The format of the target name is as follows: iqn.2001-04.com.<hostname>-<target_name> The target name must be unique. The script then adds the requested device to the target. If specific IP addresses are defined, it adds them to the list of allowed initia- tors for that target. If no IP addresses is defined, it defines that the target accepts any initiator. EXAMPLES
Create a target that uses /dev/sdb1 and allows connections only from 192.168.10.81: tgt-setup-lun -d /dev/sdb1 -n my_target 192.168.10.81 Create a target that uses /dev/sdb1 and allows connections only from 192.168.10.81 and 192.168.10.82: tgt-setup-lun -d /dev/sdb1 -n my_target 192.168.10.81 192.168.10.82 Create a target that uses /dev/sdb1 and allows connections from any initiator: tgt-setup-lun -d /dev/sdb1 -n my_target Display help: tgt-setup-lun -h AUTHOR
