Hi everybody,
I have a little problem with my AIX 6.1, PowerHA 6.1 LVM mirror. After problem with SAN pathing of our one Datacenter, I have LV at stale state.
Normally I solve it by command varyonvg for non-concurrent LUNs. I cant find solutions for Enhanced-Capable concurrent LUNs.
I guess that the right way to solve this problem is command varyonvg too. With parameter '-c' for concurrent vary.
Does anyone have experience with this procedure? I cant umount this filesystem right now, so I am curious if I can do this without unavailability or other problem with filesystem.
I've created a partition with GNU Parted, how do I mount the partition?
The manual information at http://www.gnu.org/software/parted/manual/parted.html is good, but I am sure about how I mount the partition afterwards.
Thanks,

I've got two users that show in "w" with long idle times but if I search for their processes I find nothing (ps -ef | grep username )
I'm not sure why "w" still sees them and if there is anything (short of a reboot) that I can do to clean them out.
Ideas? (8 Replies)

Hello,
I have an ancient HP-UX 11.11 system where I have a logical volume marked stale and I can't get it sync'd. I have tried lvsync and lvreduce/lvextend to no avail. It is just one 4Mb PE on the disk that I can't get current.

lvresize
LVRESIZE(8) System Manager's Manual LVRESIZE(8)NAME
lvresize - resize a logical volume
SYNOPSIS
lvresize [--alloc AllocationPolicy] [--noudevsync] [-i|--stripes Stripes [-I|--stripesize StripeSize]] {[-l|--extents [+|-]LogicalEx-
tentsNumber[%{VG|LV|PVS|FREE|ORIGIN}] | [-L|--size [+|-]LogicalVolumeSize[bBsSkKmMgGtTpPeE]} [-f|--force] [-n|--nofsck] [-r|--resizefs]
LogicalVolume{Name|Path} [PhysicalVolumePath[:PE[-PE]]...]
DESCRIPTION
lvresize allows you to resize a logical volume. Be careful when reducing a logical volume's size, because data in the reduced part is
lost!!! You should therefore ensure that any filesystem on the volume is shrunk first so that the extents that are to be removed are not
in use. Resizing snapshot logical volumes (see lvcreate(8) for information about creating snapshots) is supported as well. But to change
the number of copies in a mirrored logical volume use lvconvert(8).
OPTIONS
See lvm(8) for common options.
-f, --force
Force resize without prompting even when it may cause data loss.
-n, --nofsck
Do not perform fsck before resizing filesystem when filesystem requires it. You may need to use --force to proceed with this option.
-r, --resizefs
Resize underlying filesystem together with the logical volume using fsadm(8).
-l, --extents [+|-]LogicalExtentsNumber[%{VG|LV|PVS|FREE|ORIGIN}]
Change or set the logical volume size in units of logical extents. With the + or - sign the value is added to or subtracted from
the actual size of the logical volume and without it, the value is taken as an absolute one. The number can also be expressed as a
percentage of the total space in the Volume Group with the suffix %VG, relative to the existing size of the Logical Volume with the
suffix %LV, as a percentage of the remaining free space of the PhysicalVolumes on the command line with the suffix %PVS, as a per-
centage of the remaining free space in the Volume Group with the suffix %FREE, or (for a snapshot) as a percentage of the total
space in the Origin Logical Volume with the suffix %ORIGIN. The resulting value is rounded downward for the substraction otherwise
it is rounded upward.
-L, --size [+|-]LogicalVolumeSize[bBsSkKmMgGtTpPeE]
Change or set the logical volume size in units of megabytes. A size suffix of M for megabytes, G for gigabytes, T for terabytes, P
for petabytes or E for exabytes is optional. With the + or - sign the value is added or subtracted from the actual size of the log-
ical volume and rounded to the full extent size and without it, the value is taken as an absolute one.
-i, --stripes Stripes
Gives the number of stripes to use when extending a Logical Volume. Defaults to whatever the last segment of the Logical Volume
uses. Not applicable to LVs using the original metadata LVM format, which must use a single value throughout.
-I, --stripesize StripeSize
Gives the number of kilobytes for the granularity of the stripes. Defaults to whatever the last segment of the Logical Volume uses.
Not applicable to LVs using the original metadata LVM format, which must use a single value throughout.
StripeSize must be 2^n (n = 2 to 9).
--noudevsync
Disable udev synchronisation. The process will not wait for notification from udev. It will continue irrespective of any possible
udev processing in the background. You should only use this if udev is not running or has rules that ignore the devices LVM2 cre-
ates.
EXAMPLES
Extend a logical volume vg1/lv1 by 16MB using physical extents /dev/sda:0-1 and /dev/sdb:0-1 for allocation of extents:
lvresize -L+16M vg1/lv1 /dev/sda:0-1 /dev/sdb:0-1
