Extending AIX VDEV LUN
Hi Everyone,
I am working with my AIX person doing some testing on extending an AIX masked LUN.
The original LUN was made up of 2 TDEVs into a Meta each piece being 10GB, so it was a 20 GB LUN.
AIX person did what he needed to do to get the LUN into a VG and all and its usable.
Now we are trying to see if we can extend this LUN without taking downtime.
I added an addtional 10GB TDEV to the meta.
My AIX person is only able to see the 20GB not the 30GB he should be seeing. It is a concatinated LUN on VMAX.
Here is some output from the AIX system
VIO:
$ bootinfo -s hdiskpower1
19200
[padmin@servername] /
$ cfgmgr
[padmin@servername] /
$ bootinfo -s hdiskpower1
19200
LPAR:
[root@testlpar] /root
# chvg -g appvg
0516-1382 chvg: Volume group is not changed. None of the disks in the
volume group have grown in size.
0516-732 chvg: Unable to change volume group appvg.
We are runing in a VIO configuration.
Any help is much appriciated.
Thanks,
Brian

don't think you can do it online, see primus emc87880 and emc182945
