Hi all, could you perhaps evacuate the data from the 40GB LUN to some temporary space, then remove the 40GB LUN, then shrink the volume and then remove the temporary space? Another option maybe is to mirror to other LUNS and then try and shrink and remove... Are there any disk errors showing up in messages? Greg.

It has always been VxFS. Defrag didnt help either and decreasing the size in chunks as small as 1GB isnt working either. Initially this FS was 440GB & had 2 x 200GB LUNs & 1 x 40GB. Resize worked day before yesterday & I was able to free up one 200GB LUN out of the volume but its not working now.
