Converting from Regular VxFS file system to MVS
The following procedure describes the conversion of a regular VxFS file system to MVS file
system and optionally add new volume to it. Converting a regular VxFS to MVS requires superuser
(root) privileges. For further details on creating and administrating the VxVM Volume Sets and
VxFS Multi-Volume Files System, refer to the VERITAS Volume Manager Administrator's Guide
and VERITAS File System Administrator's Guide.
To convert from a regular VxFS file system to MVS:
1. Select a non-MVS file system to convert to MVS and unmount it.
# umount /mnt1
2. Create the volume set.
# vxvset -g dgname make myvset old_vol
3. Mount the volume set.
# mount -F vxfs /dev/vx/dsk/dgname/myvset /mnt1
4. Upgrade the volume set's file system to Version 6 disk layout. See VERITAS File System
Installation Guide and the vxfsconvert(1M) and vxupgrade(1M) manual pages for
information on upgrading VxFS disk layouts.
# vxupgrade -n 6 /mnt1
5. Add the new volume to the volume set.
# vxvset -g dgname addvol myvset new_vol
6. Add the new volume to the file system. You must specify the size of the volume.
# fsvoladm add /mnt1 new_vol 2g
