I suppose you fell for a very simple thing, but at one point this happened perhaps to all of us. As fas as i can tell from your posted output you are using SMIT to create the LVs and FSes.
In the respective SMIT dialogue there are two entries:
Code:
Enhanced Journaled File Systems
Move cursor to desired item and press Enter.
Add an Enhanced Journaled File System
Add an Enhanced Journaled File System on a Previously Defined Logical Volume
Note that you need to use the second option when you have defined the LV already. Otherwise a new one will be created before a FS is created on it. This is perhaps where your error comes from.

We have a 32PE p690 Regatta and currently we are running the latest AIX 5.2 with the latest patches. Has anyone any interesting points to mention when transitioning to AXI 5.3?

I want to import this VG on another system AIX 4.3. It is imported successfully & I can varyon the VG but unfourtantly I couldn't mount the FileSystem. Is it possible to mount a JFS2 FileSystem on AIX... (3 Replies)
We are using AIX 5.2 using jfs2 almost all excpt one mount.
Is it possible for a non root user id to mount one file system without journaling turned on, perform some activities and then remount (un-mount and mount) the same file system again.
Please advise if this is possible
Thanks (2 Replies)
Hi,
Does anyone here write cross-platform applications to be run on different Unix variants?
For some reason, an application I'm working with, when being run on machines with similar specifications, I run into "cannot allocate" errors (St9bad_alloc) on AIX but not on other platforms. Is it a... (8 Replies)

We have an IBM Power 710. It has a USB port on the front. I have done some searching and see that there is information out there on how to create a JFS2 file system on USB drives. A few have commented that they would not recommend it, if the server is important, may crash the server... Just... (0 Replies)
