    Hi,

    Possible to do that ?
    I have large lv with 1% data on it. I've read that I can shrink JFS2 filesystem. But how do I shrink lv ?
    Of cource I can create new lv and move data, but HACMP is running on that system and I afraid that there is some references to that lv device..

    thanks
