: Hi,

: I am new to AIX but have experience on HP-UX.

: Under AIX I have an existing filesystem e.g /currone which has hit 100% usage. I have no space available on the current vg. However I have some space available on a new vg. I want to re-create the filesytem /currone with a larger size on the new vg.

: In HP-UX I can:
: 1) create a new filesystem called /newone.
: 2) Copy everything fr /currone to /newone.
: 3) umount currone
: 4) vi fstab and remove the /currone entry
: 5) replace the line that has /newone entry with /currone
: 6) mount currone

: and the /currone filesystem size is enlarged.

: How do I do this in AIX? What parameters needs to be changed?

: Thanks to anyone who is willing to offer me some assistance!
