Hello,

I'm new to HP-UX and we currently have a rx2600 Itanium with HP-UX 11i
v2 running here.

When I try to make a new filesystem I receive the following error:

# newfs -F vxfs /dev/vg01/rlvol1
mkfs: Unable to execute vxfs-specific module for the command mkfs
/sbin/fs/vxfs/mkfs: Exec format error

Also tried it with SAM, but that fails as well.

Does anybody have any idea what the problem could be?

Best regards,

Rob den Braber
