how to delete a veritas filesystem
Hi,
I have just created a veritas filesystem /dblog.
# df -Ig
Filesystem GB blocks Used Free %Used Mounted on
/dev/hd4 0.25 0.19 0.06 75% /
/dev/hd2 3.00 2.01 0.99 68% /usr
/dev/hd9var 3.00 0.31 2.69 11% /var
/dev/hd3 0.12 0.01 0.12 5% /tmp
/dev/hd1 0.12 0.00 0.12 1% /home
/dev/hd11admin 0.12 0.00 0.12 1% /admin

/dev/vx/dsk/dbs-dg/oraclevol 14.65 0.94 13.71 7% /oracle
/dev/vx/dsk/dbs-dg/exportvol 48.83 3.13 45.70 7% /export
/dev/vx/dsk/dbs-dg/dbweb 4.88 0.32 4.56 7% /dbweb
/dev/vx/dsk/dbs-dg/dblogvol 48.83 3.13 45.70 7% /dblog
I want to delete this file system because the size is much bigger than the requirement.
Anyone can help please.
Thanks in advance
You could shrink the filesystem using vxresize, but as it looks empty, then better to delete filesystem, so you need to delete volume:
umount /dblog vxassist -g dbs-dg remove volume dblogvol
Then you can recreate:
vxassist -g dbs-dg make dblogvol 30g (30g for example) mkfs -Fvxfs /dev/vx/rdsk/dbs-dg/dblogvol mount /dev/vx/dsk/dbs-dg/dblogvol /dblog
