extend partition

Roshan
Hi,

I currently have 13gb in /u01 partition in which there is EBS+database. I am following the steps in your blog to extend it:
http://ermanarslan.blogspot.com/2013/10/linux-how-to-extend-partition-and.html

My current disk space is as shown below:
Filesystem                Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda5                  15G  5.1G  9.0G  36% /
tmpfs                      55G  1.9G   54G   4% /dev/shm
/dev/sda1                1008M  103M  855M  11% /boot
/dev/sda3                  16G  175M   15G   2% /tmp
/dev/sda6                 430G  395G   13G  97% /u01
//172.25.43.59/ERPPRODDB  500G  145G  356G  29% /backup

I want to reduce the size of tmpfs(/dev/shm) and extend /dev/sda6 partition.

Do I need to delete the tmpfs partition first before and extend /u01 and then recreate /tmpfs?

Attached below is my action plan
partition.txt

What do you actually mean?
tmpfs or /tmp ? 

/tmp is a regular filesystem. 
tmpfs is a special one. But as far as I can see you say /dev/shm, so you are talkin about tmpfs

As for /dev/shm, you can follow this document: (at the last part, you will see the required /dev/shm operation)

ORA-00845 - Which value for /dev/shm is needed to startup database without ORA-00845 (Doc ID 1399209.1)

For increasing /dev/sda6 , follow http://ermanarslan.blogspot.com/2013/10/linux-how-to-extend-partition-and.html

Note that, there are no releations between /dev/shm and /dev/sda6
