Operating Systems AIX How to increase capacity?

I think allocating another LUN is way better than increasing the size of the LUN and jumping into trouble. After it is presented to the host you can always get it into the VG and use it for any filesystems.

Is your rmvdev command a script or an extension or something? If so, can you share it?

Thanks,

i have same problem, shell don't know command rmvdev. I solve this problem by using rmdev -dev VTDname.
