Increase the mount point of solaris2.6
Hi

I have a UNIX system with Sun solaris 2.6 OS.
It has a filesystem which is mounted on /osmf/mgmt/condir
df -k
2077491 1537111 506637 76% /osmf/mgmt/condir

I want to increase the size of this mount point.Is it required to reboot the machine for incresing the mount point space.

Your valuable inputs will be of great help to me.

You do not increase the size of mount point, you increase the slice/ volume which is mount on the mount point. To do that you need to find what kind of device is mounted on the given mount point. If its volume then you can increase the size with growfs, if its slice then you have to backup the data increase the size of the slice, label it , run newfs on the slice and then mount on the mount point after that you can restore the backed data into the new slice.
