yes, the boot failure was for a zone which inherited pieces of /opt (/opt/csw, /opt/netbeans...). don't inherit-pkg-dir /opt though, then you can't ever add your own directories to /opt in the zone. Nonetheless as I said /opt on a separate filesystem is not supported by Sun. It will make lucreate fail among other things.

You can have stuff under /opt (e.g. /opt/coolstack) as a separate filesystem but putting /opt separate will cause problems. This isn't theoretical. I tried the same thing and it worked for awhile then it didn't and the system was in single user mode for agonizing time while I frantically remounted /opt as /a and moved it's contents back to the root filesystem. /var as a separate filesystem is well-supported. There was a bug for awhile but it's fixed. ________________________________ From: veritas-vx-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu<mailto:veritas-vx-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu> [mailto:veritas-vx-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu<mailto:veritas-vx-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu>] On Behalf Of milind phanse Sent: Saturday, April 03, 2010 4:21 AM To: VeritasUsers Subject: [Veritas-vx] Can I increse /opt partition under veritas Hi, Can I increse /opt partition under veritas r...@backup02<mailto:r...@backup02> # vxprint opt Disk group: rootdg TY NAME ASSOC KSTATE LENGTH PLOFFS STATE TUTIL0 PUTIL0 v opt fsgen ENABLED 8395200 - ACTIVE - - pl opt-01 opt ENABLED 8395200 - ACTIVE - - sd rootdisk-03 opt-01 ENABLED 8395200 0 - - - pl opt-02 opt ENABLED 8395200 - ACTIVE - - sd rootmirror-05 opt-02 ENABLED 8395200 0 - - - r...@backup02<mailto:r...@backup02> # vxassist -g rootdg maxsize Maximum volume size: 38952960 (19020Mb) r...@backup02<mailto:r...@backup02> # vxassist -g rootdg maxgrow opt Volume opt can be extended by 19476480 to: 27871680 (13609Mb+448 sectors) /opt is mounted on s5 of rootdsik & rootmirror. _______________________________________________ Veritas-vx maillist - Veritas-vx@mailman.eng.auburn.edu<mailto:Veritas-vx@mailman.eng.auburn.edu> http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-vx
