Actually, I am not sure if we have a backup, because honestly, I am not that very much familiar with Centos. We use it for our mail sever for zimbra and other web servers but after setting it up, as long it is working just fine we don't do any other thing. Does it have an automatic backup system? And if it does, how can we use it to restore it back? Thanks.

What version of CentOS? LVM or standard partitioning? Method (commands etc.) for resize that ultimately failed?

It depends on how the disk was previously arranged, what filesystems are in use, and exactly what you did to get to the current state. If the data is really important, professional data recovery would be appropriate. A mailing list isn't a great place to carry on such a conversation. A more appropriate venue would be www.linuxquestions.org . -- Bob Nichols "NOSPAM" is really part of my email address. Do NOT delete it.
I recommend REAR next time, part of CentOS. Wonderful utility. LZ 2016-11-03 2:46 GMT+01:00 Christopher G.
