Replacing a SAM-QFS mr partition with a larger one
In SAMFS 5.2 or newer, you can shrink and grow a SAMFS filesystem by removing or addiungan mr (data) partition to a ma SAM_QFS filesystem.
Can I replace a mr partition by a different one (possibly larger or smaller) by the following means:
a. samcmd release <eq_number>
b. samcmd remove <eq_number>
c. edit my mcf file and replace the device for <eq_number> with a new device
(eg different /dev/... path and possibly a different size)
d. samd config
e. samcmd add <eq_number>
If not, what are the restrictions on removing and adding a device?
f. Must the size be the same?
