The root filesystem was mirrored, someone/something stopped mirroring, and increased / and /home to ridiculous values (/ got increased to 102gb and its only using 4.3gb, so 98gb is free). Can I reduce the / (/dev/hd4) filesytem down WITHOUT corrupting the the OS?
I would do a: chfs -a size=10g /dev/hd4.
This is AIX 6.1 TL9 SP8 (6100-09-08-1642). I would even reduce the Filesystem size by 1gb @10 times if I had to.
The ultimate end is to remove hdisk1 from the rootvg and re-add it back as a mirror.
These are 146gb disks
lsvg -l rootvg (and added up the PP's) shows I have 538PP's allocated, with 7PP free with a PPsize of 256mb (which is 1.7gb approx.). hd10opt is occupying 40PP's and is on hdisk1 (as seen with lslv -l hd10opt)
I have already reduced /home to only occupy hdisk0 (as shown with lslv -m hd9). / is on hdisk 0 as well.
I need to migratepv -l hd10opt hdisk1 hdisk0 but it reports not enough space (of course due to only 1.7gb free on hdisk0).
