Increase NetWare volume size
NetWare Enhanced Integration enables you to increase the size of NetWare volumes from your iSeries™. You can increase volume size by specifying the new size and the segment
from which you want the additional size to be used.
To increase volume size, do this:
-
On the iSeries command line, type WRKNTWVOL and
press F4.
- Specify the NetWare server name.
-
Press F10 to show segments that are available on the NetWare server.
Note the device number and size of free space on the *FREE entries.
Segments that appear as *FREE have not been assigned to a volume.
You can assign this free space to any other volume on any other disk device
under these conditions:
- That disk device does not already contain 8 segments that are assigned
to volumes.
- The volume that you want to increase has fewer than 32 segments from this
and other disk devices.
- Type 2 (change) by the volume that you want to increase and
press Enter.
- Specify a device number that has a *FREE segment.
- In the Size field, specify the new total size
that you want the volume to be (not exceeding the available free space). For
example, if you have a volume that is currently 50MB and you want to increase
it by 30MB, specify 80MB for the size. iSeries uses 30MB from the device number that
you specify.
- Press Enter, and iSeries increases the size of the volume.
Note:
Changes to a segment or device number are only recognized
if you increase the size. To decrease volume size, you
must first delete the volume and then re-create it with the new size.
