growfs a zone

807559Jun 1 2005 — edited Jun 7 2005
I am having troubles growing a filesystem in a zone. I have been able to grow a file system if I keep it in the global zone and mount it into the zone.
ie mount /dev/md/dsk/d100 to /expor/thome/zones/ursa1/root/oracle. I don't want to do this as there are problems booting the system - the zones don't start because the file systems dependancies are not met. So I have elected to go with the config below.
The problem that I have is this
growfs /dev/md/dsk/d100
devinfo: /dev/md/dsk/d100: Inappropriate ioctl for device
growfs: cannot get partition size

any suggestions!
