[Sunhelp] How to increase the space of filesystem?

[Michael C. Vergallen]

if you have an other disk with a slice that is free you just do this.

mkfs /dev/slice where slice is the name of the disc slice
mount /dev/slice /mnt
cd /mnt
tar cvpf /opt - | tar xvpf - 
umount /mnt
umount /opt
mount /dev/slice /opt
Test the system
edit /etc/vfstab and change the /opt filesystem defaults to reflect
changes.

This should be it.
