Hi,
I have an fc18 system and trying to resize an LVM partition with an
ext4 filesystem and receiving the following message from virt-resize:
# virt-resize -d --expand /dev/sda1 --LV-expand /dev/mapper/prop-home
prop-1.img prop-expand.img
command line: virt-resize -d --expand /dev/sda1 --LV-expand
/dev/mapper/prop-home prop-1.img prop-expand.img
Examining prop-1.img ...
libguestfs: trace: add_drive "prop-1.img" "readonly:true"
libguestfs: trace: add_drive = 0
libguestfs: trace: add_drive "prop-expand.img"
"readonly:false"
libguestfs: trace: add_drive = 0
libguestfs: trace: launch
libguestfs: trace: get_tmpdir
libguestfs: trace: get_tmpdir = "/tmp"
libguestfs: trace: get_cachedir
libguestfs: trace: get_cachedir = "/var/tmp"
libguestfs: trace: disk_format
"/var/lib/libvirt/images/prop-expand.img"
libguestfs: trace: disk_format = "raw"
libguestfs: trace: get_cachedir
libguestfs: trace: get_cachedir = "/var/tmp"
[...] 100% --:--
libguestfs: trace: launch = 0
libguestfs: trace: lvm_set_filter "/dev/sda"
libguestfs: trace: lvm_set_filter = -1 (error)
Fatal error: exception Guestfs.Error("lvm_set_filter: vgchange:
Couldn't find device with uuid zouQ8X-qxqJ-mp6p-pzg3-mi2i-K9YM-A763Kc.
Refusing activation of partial LV home. Use --partial to override.
Refusing activation of partial LV swap. Use --partial to override.
R
libguestfs: trace: close
libguestfs: trace: internal_autosync
libguestfs: trace: internal_autosync = 0
I don't understand this error message. I also see that vgchange
doesn't even have a 'partial' option, so I'm not sure how to
troubleshoot it. Here is the filesystem layout for this system:
# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
devtmpfs 7.9G 0 7.9G 0% /dev
tmpfs 7.9G 0 7.9G 0% /dev/shm
tmpfs 7.9G 3.9M 7.9G 1% /run
tmpfs 7.9G 0 7.9G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup
/dev/mapper/prop-root 15G 7.4G 6.3G 55% /
tmpfs 7.9G 0 7.9G 0% /tmp
/dev/mapper/prop-boot 477M 95M 358M 21% /boot
/dev/mapper/prop-home 222G 212G 9.9G 96% /home
The image is the 222G /home partition only. The other partitions are
on another image.
Any ideas how to troubleshoot this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Alex
