xlvExtend(1M)
xlvExtend - extend an xlv volume
As shipped in IRIX 6.5.5. Unchanged since IRIX 6.5.
NAME xlvExtend - extend an xlv volume SYNOPSIS /usr/sysadm/privbin/xlvExtend -d new partition -o objectName -M device file | -m mount dir DESCRIPTION xlvExtend adds another partition to a logical volume and then grows the filesystem on it. The data already on the logical volume remains intact, but any information previously on the partition that is being added will be destroyed. This command calls xlv_make(1M) to make the new partition into a volume, xlv_mgr(1M) to add the volume element to the logical volume, and xfs_growfs(1M) to grow the filesystem onto the new volume. This privcmd is not intended to be called from the command line. xlv_make(1M) and xlv_mgr(1M)provide a more interactive interface for managing xlv volumes. OPTIONS -d new partition The name of the partition to add. The "/dev/dsk/" part of the path should be omitted. Any information on this partition will be destroyed. -o objectName The name to give the new volume element that is created. -M device file If the logical volume is not currently mounted, then this argument must be given. It is the full pathname to the logical volume. -m mount dir If the logical volume is currently mounted, then this argument must be given. It is the directory where the logical volume is mounted.
