Operating Systems AIX Multi-terabyte filesystem space increase on AIX7.1 Post 302990883 by rbatte1 on Thursday 2nd of February 2017 08:02:20 AM

Yes, sorry, extents is more of an Oracle space allocation. Smilie

The difference in "increase to" and "increase by" determines if you do this:-
Code:
chfs -a size=15000G /your_fs

... or this:-
Code:
chfs -a size=+15000G /your_fs

The former sets the new size and the latter sets the increase in size, so depending what you start with, there could be quite a difference.

I think you have a good plan and I think that the suggestion from agent.kgb is very sensible. Maybe stop short and do the last 2 extensions yourself. Ensure you don't over-allocate the filesystem. When I last had AIX, reducing a filesystem was not possible - you had to drop & re-create it.

SAN disk is (almost always) provided by protected disk, so probably RAID5 or RAID10 etc., but if you have SAN disk, it is not the concern of the person managing the AIX server, so that makes things easier. Smilie


King regards,

NAME
Locale::Codes::LangExt - standard codes for language extension identification SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Codes::LangExt; $lext = code2langext('acm'); # $lext gets 'Mesopotamian Arabic' $code = langext2code('Mesopotamian Arabic'); # $code gets 'acm' @codes = all_langext_codes(); @names = all_langext_names(); DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Codes::LangExt" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying language extensions, such as those as defined in the IANA language registry. Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default IANA language registry codes will be used. SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying language extensions. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a constant that is automatically exported by this module. For example, the two are equivalent: $lext = code2langext('acm','alpha'); $lext = code2langext('acm',LOCALE_LANGEXT_ALPHA); The codesets currently supported are: alpha This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) codes from the IANA language registry, such as 'acm' for Mesopotamian Arabic. This is the default code set. ROUTINES
code2langext ( CODE [,CODESET] ) langext2code ( NAME [,CODESET] ) langext_code2code ( CODE ,CODESET ,CODESET2 ) all_langext_codes ( [CODESET] ) all_langext_names ( [CODESET] ) Locale::Codes::LangExt::rename_langext ( CODE ,NEW_NAME [,CODESET] ) Locale::Codes::LangExt::add_langext ( CODE ,NAME [,CODESET] ) Locale::Codes::LangExt::delete_langext ( CODE [,CODESET] ) Locale::Codes::LangExt::add_langext_alias ( NAME ,NEW_NAME ) Locale::Codes::LangExt::delete_langext_alias ( NAME ) Locale::Codes::LangExt::rename_langext_code ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] ) Locale::Codes::LangExt::add_langext_code_alias ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] ) Locale::Codes::LangExt::delete_langext_code_alias ( CODE [,CODESET] ) These routines are all documented in the Locale::Codes::API man page.
