Hi, There is a difference between the help of lvresize and its man page. In the manpage, there is nothing about the -r or --resizefs function. Centos4. [root at serv01 ~]# lvresize Please specify either size or extents (not both) lvresize: Resize a logical volume lvresize [-A|--autobackup y|n] [--alloc AllocationPolicy]...

Side note: In CentOS-6, I noticed a new option in lvresize / lvextend: -r, --resizefs Resize underlying filesystem together with the logical volume using fsadm(8). Nice. Two steps (lvresize and resize2fs) can now be combined into one! Works great. But that has nothing to do with my question, just thought I'd share...

Is there a way for a domU to discover size changes of block devices modified by dom0? To make it clear - if I do in dom0 a lvresize of a logical volume given as physical disk to a domU, is there a way to use the new size of this device within the domU without reboot?

Hello guys, my scenario is following 1. I have LVM group named "system" 2. I have a logical volumes - system/root , ext3 mounted as / (20GB) - system/swap, swap - system/home, ext3 mounted as /home (431GB) I need to shrink system/home to 80GB (currently there is 57GB used) and use free space to create another logical volumes. My scenario is 1. reduce

I selected the defaults in partitioning my drive and df -h shows: Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 18G 2.5G 15G 15% / /dev/hda1 99M 12M 82M 13% /boot none 126M 0 126M 0% /dev/shm Now I am getting ready to install Scalix CE and it is telling me a whole story about what my

...n't seem to detect the new space I've tried various things: - using pvresize so that LVM detects the bigger partition pvresize /dev/sda6 and the pvscan command now shows the correct space. running "xe sr-scan uuid=$UUID" after this failed to detect the space - using lvresize to increase the underlying LV for the SR, e.g. lvresize -l +12345 /dev/VG/$UUID Now lvs shows the right amount of space, but "xe sr-scan uuid=$UUID" after this failed to detect the space - I also tried using sr-param-set: # VALUE= ( manually extracted from lvs --units...

...lume group(?) is not the correct size. fdisk from within the guest also shows the correct size for the device. I've tried resize2fs from within the guest.

Hi, We have some problems with Xen 4.0.1 and resinzing of lvm volumes. When I resize a lvm volume with "lvresize -L+50G -n /dev/data/windows-data" the Windows Dom U don''t scan the new size of the lvm volume. The only way to see the extend is to halt and create the DomU We have try with sign and unsigned drivers gplpv, with Windows 2008 and Windows 2003 server : http://apt.univention.de/downl...

Hi! Say I export an LVM logical volume from dom0 as /dev/xvda to the domU: disk = [ ''phy:xenimages/stan,xvda,w'' ] No I can lvresize xenimages/stan in dom0, but the domU stays ignorant of this change. How could I propagate the resize to the domU without rebooting or temporarily breaking its connection to /dev/xvda? Sort of a SCSI rescan, perhaps? -- Thanks, Feri. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mail...

Hi all, i''ve a Problem :) I tried to resize a disk of my data guest from 100 to 400 GB. I did an lvresize /dev/xendata/data-disk -L 400G an it works. I started the Guest and did an df -h to check the size but there are still 100 G :( Can somebody tell me whats wrong? i dont want to lose my data at the Disk! The Machine is Debian Lenny and the guest OS also. King Regards Florian Rahmann alias Dexter...

...e: * hdparm -z /dev/sdb * partx -a -v /dev/sdb * partprobe -s * echo "1" > /sys/block/sdb/device/rescan And while dmesg reported that it recognized the partition change, LVM did still not see it. So eventually, I was still forced to reboot, after which everything (pvresize, lvresize, resize2fs) worked fine. Environment: * A VMWare virtual machine * CentOS 6.7 (Final) Is there any other way I'm missing? Is this caused by the fact that I was trying to resize a partition that is under the root file system? If so, then is it really impossible to do it live? Thanks, -...

I Have a Xen 3.0 running and want to resize a few images that are backup up with rsync. They are 20G and need them to be 5Gb. Can that be done? thank you. -- saludos! ------------------------- Alejandro Weintz Aguilar PixelEstudios.com. Tel. (506) - 5920328 Cel.

...nt to shrink one of my LVM based domU''s, but don''t quite know how to do it. I have searched the Wiki & HOWTO''s, and they all show you how expand / enlarge a LVM based domU, but not shrinking it. So, I stopped (destroyed) the domU, and then resized it as follows: lvresize /dev/data/cpanel1 -L10GB (It was 100GB), but when I a started it up again, I got some errors about the the disk being corrupt, and then a kernel panic. So, how should I shrink a LVM based domU? -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers CEO, SoftDux Web: http://www.SoftDux.com Check out my technical blog...
