VxVM vxresize ERROR V-5-1-2605 cannot stat /backup
Using tusc, we can see the vxresize command fails in statvfs() system call, which returned errno 72, i.e.:
statvfs("/backup", 0x7fffedc0) ........................... ERR#72 EOVERFLOW
This issue is caused because vxresize used statvfs() instead of statvfs64() system call.
The issue had been logged as incident 2222105 and fix in 5.1SP1 and above patches.
