Dear all,
I've only just started working with a Sun/solaris system, but I'm used
to work with AIX/Unix.
In AIX I use smit to increase the size of a logical volume. How do I
do this in Sun/Solaris ?
Thx,
Jan.

Microsoft treats IT managers the way Proctor & Gamble treats nine-year-old
prospective consumers: lots of noise, bright colors, and jumping around.
Other software vendors just wish they could be so successful.

1. Filesystem Restore Problem Sun/Solaris
I recently needed to reorganize the filesystems on a Sparc 10 with GT
Graphics. Of course, with Solaris this requires removing all data from
the existing filesystems (I wasn't able to preserve any of them).
The filesystem reorg. and restoration of data did not pose a problem.
I used ufsdump and ufsrestore. I restored directory by directory
(ufsrestore -ivf) and skipped the ufsrestore file and /dev/dsk &
/dev/rdsk.
I am experiencing a problem with open windows now, though. There are
horizontal green lines about 2-3 pixels tall across the entire screen.
My X.25 is also disabled, but I can more easily reconfigure that.
I would like to ask others who have been through this procedure before
for advice. Do all patches need to be backed out and reapplied after a
restore? Should the -i option for restoration be avoided for this
operation? Is there something I missed?
I am having the monitor and Graphics Tower checked for hardware
problems, in case the timing is purely coincidental with this
filesystem operation.
Please post a follow-up or e-mail if you have advice.
Thanks,
John Spaeth
