I regret that I have not moved the boot volume group before and don't have a server I can try it on available. I would have to defer to those wiser than I on the procedure to follow. Have you approached Red Hat themselves for advice? They are normally very good. It depends on your support contract I suppose.

It might be relatively simple, something like:-
  • Boot from CD (or image)
  • Slice new LUN to create /boot and LVM partitions
  • Copy /boot from old to new
  • Vary on & extend the boot volume group with the new LUN
  • Migrate (as above)
  • Alter the boot parameter and/or grub.conf
  • Shutdown & boot.
Of course I can't be sure and I would not know how to alter the boot parameters and/or grub.conf so more advice is required.

rootvg mirrored

I want to increase the size of /tmp by 1GB I know that the command is chfs -a size=+1G /tmp But the rootvg is mirrored and when I do a lsvg -p rootvg, I could see 2 disks. Will there be any impact if I increase the size of /tmp when the rootvg is mirrored ? Please advise. (1 Reply)

gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name

gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name(3) 			      gnutls				   gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name(3)

NAME

       gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name - API function

SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/x509.h>

       int gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name(gnutls_x509_crt_t cert, unsigned int seq, void * san, size_t * san_size, unsigned int * critical);

ARGUMENTS

       gnutls_x509_crt_t cert
		   should contain a gnutls_x509_crt_t structure

       unsigned int seq
		   specifies the sequence number of the alt name (0 for the first one, 1 for the second etc.)

       void * san  is the place where the alternative name will be copied to

       size_t * san_size
		   holds the size of san.

       unsigned int * critical
		   will be non-zero if the extension is marked as critical (may be null)

DESCRIPTION

       This function retrieves the Alternative Name (2.5.29.17), contained in the given certificate in the X509v3 Certificate Extensions.

       When the SAN type is otherName, it will extract the data in the otherName's value field, and GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME is returned.  You may use
       gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid() to get the corresponding OID and the "virtual" SAN types (e.g., GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME_XMPP).

       If an otherName OID is known, the data will be decoded.	Otherwise the returned data will be DER encoded, and you will have  to	decode	it
       yourself.  Currently, only the RFC 3920 id-on-xmppAddr SAN is recognized.

RETURNS

       the  alternative  subject  name	type on success, one of the enumerated gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t.	It will return GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEM-
       ORY_BUFFER if  san_size is not large enough to hold the value.  In that case  san_size will be updated with the required size.  If the cer-
       tificate does not have an Alternative name with the specified sequence number then GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE is returned.
