3.5.1 Matrix Server Administration Guide

Chapter 7: Configure PSFS Filesystems 125

You can use the -s option to specify the new size for the filesystem. If you

do not specify the size, the filesystem will grow to the size of the

partition. The -s option can be used as follows.

• Specify the size in kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes, or terabytes:

-s

size[K|M|G|T]

• Specify the amount (in kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes, or terabytes)

by which the filesystem should be increased:

-s [+]size[K|M|G|T]

The following example increases the size of the filesystem by 1 GB.

resizepsfs -s +1G /dev/psd/psd6p4

NOTE:

If you do not specify any options, resizepsfs will try to resize the

filesystem to the full size of the partition.

The -q option prints only error messages.

Destroy a Filesystem

If necessary, you can remove a filesystem from the volume on which it is

located. Select the filesystem on the Management Console, right-click,

and select Delete. All persistent mounts for that filesystem will also be

destroyed. The filesystem must be unmounted when you use this option.

NOTE: Any snapshots of the filesystem must be destroyed before the

filesystem is destroyed.

Recover an Evicted Filesystem

To recover an evicted PSFS filesystem, you must unmount and then

remount the filesystem from all affected nodes in the matrix.

To unmount the filesystem, use the procedure described under

“Unmount a Filesystem” on page 112.

You can then remount the filesystem:

• If a persistent mount is associated with the filesystem, you can activate

the mount from the Management Console. Right-click the filesystem

that you have unmounted and select “Edit Persistent Mounts.” Then,
