hi,

you can increase it. it's not big deal or major problem.

but you can also create another partition on your storage than try to copied from your old /usr/sap/trans to your new /usr/sap/trans. after that...just switch it.

Hi,

There are 2 was of doing it :

1. unmount existing usr/sap/trans and mount a new one with increased space and all files copied from earlier 1.

Then take a restart of SAP system

2. Point DIR_TRANS to another directory which as more space and copy all files from existing /usr/sap/trans and then take a restart.

There should not be any issue to increase rootvg or create another storage with more space and mount as /usr/sap/trans1 and then copy all the data from /usr/sap/trans1 to /usr/sap/trans. Once copy is successful unmount /usr/sap/trans and mount /usr/sap/trans1 as /usr/sap/trans

About DIR_TRANS parameter if you search on help.sap.com you will get the clear idea.
