CentOS - Oct 2010 - Trying to get xen to boot off of an iso or a sysresc image so I can expand a filesystem to the extent of the LVM's free space.

I have a Xen LVM based VM with two partitions:

/dev/VolGroup00/vm01p1

/dev/VolGroup00/vm01p2

p2 is about 50GB, I gave it's LVM an extra 30 or so using lvextend.

How can I extend the partition to fill my free space and the filesystem?

I don't mind offline, if I can get Xen to boot off an alternative media.

Peter

You can do that online using resize2fs (see above)
