How to split current existing 32G filesystem into 8G*4

Hello, Buddies:
I am a database administrator. we want to split existing 32G filesystem into separate chunks of 8G and map them into separate filesystems ?

For example:

/abc1/appl/oracle [32G] to be split into:

/def1/appl/oracle [8G]
/ghi7/appl/oracle [8G]
/jkl23/appl/oracle [8G]
/xyz2/appl/oracle [8G]

The sun solaris is

uname -a
SunOS procede02 5.9 Generic_118558-34 sun4u sparc SUNW,Netra-T12

Is there any friend can give me a real time example how to do that?

My second question is:

For another currnt filesystem, it is 32G, we want to shrink it to 8G, can you also give me an example how to shrink?

for example /u01/app/oracle [32G} ==>[8G]


Thank you very much in advance.

Jerry
