ACFS filesystem extension

[Roshan]

Hello Erman,

Actually, our DEV environment environments on KVM have 2 ACFS filesystems(osashare and interface) mounted. These ACFS filesystems exist on production primary and DR. In case we need to extend each of them, storage team says there are 2 options:

1. Provided new bigger disks for local osashare and interface and unmount the snapshot disks from server to avoid conflict.
2. Add new disks on DR itself to increase FS size. As a result, will have to add new disks to all snapshot environments(DEV) but this will enable the FS to be refreshed without any further issues.

2 LUNs have been created for each osashare and interface. Kindly advise how to extend from DR so that the new space is reflected on all snapshots environment.

Thanks,

Roshan

I had a look at this DOC - > (Doc ID 1173978.1)

INTERFACE                      MOUNTED         262140        872
OSASHARE                       MOUNTED         262140        872


Shall I proceed as follows?

1. alter each diskgroup and add new LUN

Thanks,

Roshan

Just add the new disks to the ASM Diskgroup that serves ACFS and then use acfsutil to resize your volume.

The following blog post also describes it ->

Thanks a lot Erman. I was able to resize the disk.
