Hi, I wonder if somebody could help me.I'm running low on space on /usr2 partition (tru64 digital unix).I bought an extra hard drive.How do I configure the new hard drive and allocate the new space to my /usr2 patition.

Thanks,

Alex.

create a file system on the new disk that will be /usr2. mount it with another name as say /usrnew. CD to /usr and tar it all up and
move it to /usrnew and then untar the archive. unmount /usr and /usrnew. mount the new device as /usr . Make the changes to your mount tab.
