    Hi

    Can anybody tell me the command to inform AIX that a disk within a volume group on a XIV storage system has increased in size? With a DS4000 I would normally use chvg -g vg to do this but I understand this does not work with XIV disks.

    In the same vain how would I do the same with a disk in a concurrent volume group as chvg -g vg does not work either?

    I've trawled through redbooks and the internet but can't find anything.

    Thanks for you help.
