    one of my file system is full. when I checked my filesytem, it contains in two hardisks, hdisk0 and hdisk1. Each of them uses about half of its PP. Since the OS is sit on the hdisk0, I want to increase my filesystem only on hdisk1, not hdisk0. How can I do this? I know to use chfs a size=+128 /myFilesystem. How can system guarantee that it only increase the PP in specific hd?

    You can extend the LV on a specific drive and then size the filesystem

    extendlv LVname NumberOfLPs PVName

    And then

    chfs -a size=Newsize /my/filesystem

    Read the man page for extendlv to see how to use a map file and other useful bits.

    1. lslv -l fslv00
    fslv00:/oracle_tmp
    PV COPIES IN BAND DISTRIBUTION
    hdisk0 336:000:000 16% 109:057:092:046:032
    hdisk1 023:000:000 80% 000:023:000:000:000
    if I run the chfs -a size=+5M /oracle_tmp
    where the new added volume will be allocated, in the hdisk0 or hdisk1, How can I specify only to add into hdisk1? Because the format of the chfs does not include the PV.
