vxfsconvert(1M) vxfsconvert(1M)

vxfsconvert -s required_space /dev/vg01/rlvol5

After the conversion completes, the increased volume space becomes a part of the converted VxFS ﬁle sys-

tem.

Note: DO NOT reduce the volume after the conversion.

If the conversion fails, continue using the original ﬁle system. You do not need to run

fsck. Reclaim the

disk space by entering (on LVM):

lvreduce /dev/vg01/rlvol5

old_size

WARNINGS

Do not run

vxfsconvert on the /stand

or whole-disk bootable ﬁle systems.

In the rare case of unsuccessful conversion, there is a risk of data loss or corruption. Always do a full sys-

tem backup before the conversion.

DIAGNOSTICS

All error messages, I/O failure, and exit messages display on standard output.
