Full Discussion: Limit directory Size in AIX
Operating Systems AIX Limit directory Size in AIX Post 303001466 by rbatte1 on Friday 4th of August 2017 04:24:53 AM

Why 'too many' filesystems? How many do you have already? The OS will cope with many more than you could likely want.

You mention multiple SAN disks, and that makes me wonder a little. Are you worried that you would have to allocate a new disk from the SAN and use them directly as your filesystem? You should be building the provisioned storage into volume groups and slicing a filesystem of whatever size you want from that.


As a starter to help you, can you show us the output from:-
Code:
lspv
lsvg
lsvg -l rootvg
lsvg -l othervg
df -k



Kind regards,
Robin
