Thor Thanks for responding to my post

I got the output what i need, and the question is related to Solaris VxVM

#vxdiskunsetup -C <device>

And bring the disk in to VxVM control

#vxdisksetup -i <device>

And finally thanks for your suggestion.

You are missing the filesystem type.
Code:
# mount -F ufs /dev/dsk/c0d1s5 /abc
or
Code:
# mount -F vxfs /dev/dsk/c0d1s5 /abc

@saroj1439 Please, in the future:
  • answer to the questions asked by people trying to help you.
  • use a new thread if what you are asking is unrelated to the existing thread.
  • don't mark a thread as solved if you don't think it is.
Anyway, here are replies to your last four questions:

You need to unmount /abc before growing the file system.

The problem is on the linux side so there is no way for you to fix it on the Solaris one. Just install/enable telnet on linux, or (better) use ssh.

Swap is used to increase the virtual memory size available to the operating system. Solaris and Linux have different behavior regarding memory overcommitment. I would recommend not undersize the swap. Too large a swap is not a problem outside wasting some disk space. Too little a swap can have destructive effects.

That one is easy. The difference is 1

Seriously, details for the initial release are here : http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19683-01/...peq/index.html and for updates http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19683-01/...pe8/index.html
