Make sure you have two or four disks that can handle the extra 30GB.
Then, just use vxresize as you would with a regular volume. Stripe
columns will automatically concatenate across disks, so you don't
need to change from 2 columns to 4 columns to grow from 20GB to 50GB.

This is most likely something normal. Most likely a mirror

or after importing a disk group.

VxFS offers ways using checkpoints (look at fsckptadm and

I don't know if you can do that with snapshots. You can do that with
checkpoints, though:
fsckptadm list /mount/point
This should print a line describing the "ctime", which is the
creation time of the checkpoint.

You would not have encountered this message if swap had been completely
removed. The command:
# vxassist -g big0 maxsize usetype=foobie
results in:
Maximum volume size: 147642368 (72091Mb)
So, in most ways, the usage type has no effect on this command at all.

The default choice (with layout=mirror,stripe) is to use one or

Relayouts are crash recoverable and reversible without concern for
how long they sit around in intermediate states. Relayout could be
a lot better than it is (certain intermediate failures are a bit
confusing to recover from), but the question asked here is not an

Depending on why it is disabled, you can kill and restart

Is the timezone set correctly or differently when vxconfigd

that syslogd itself timestamped the messages, but that would
