Hi all I am having some trouble using the ext2online utility, I have reduced the problem down to its simplist form, and it goes soemthing like this: Start with a regular msdos labelled disk (I have tried lvm volumes): Command (m for help): p Disk /dev/sdb: 18.3 GB, 18351967232 bytes 64 heads, 32 sectors/track, 17501 cylinders Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 = 1048576 bytes Device Boot

After upgrading my HD, I am now wishing I left some space for doing snapshots. Is there a way to free up some space so I can get some free PE? Right now I have this: # vgdisplay --- Volume group --- VG Name VolGroup00 System ID Format lvm2 Metadata Areas 1 Metadata Sequence No 7 VG Access read/write VG Status resizable

Hello, As a Virtuozzo users we have majority of our diskspace formatted with -i 1024 -b 1024. Lately I discovered that on CentOS 4.6 ext2online barfs when I try to grow such filesystem. Running it with -v -d, it prints lots of lines like: ext2online v1.1.18 - 2001/03/18 for EXT2FS 0.5b ext2online: 873646830 is a bad size for an ext2 fs! rounding down to 873644033 ... group NNN inode table has

hello, on Slackware 9.1 I have e2fsprogs 1.34 and lvm 1.0.7. In lvm package I have e2fsadm command;in e2fsprogs package I have resize2fs command. In man page for e2fsadm it refers to ext2online to extend a mounted file system, but I have not that command. Where can I find it? On my system I have resize2fs. is it the same of ext2resize or they are different programs? Are they mantained in parallel?

I'm running CentOS 5.2 x x86_64. I did an lvextend of a logical volume, and proceeded to run one of the ext2 utilities (e.g. ext2online, ext2resize) and found to my surprise that it wasn't on there. So I started googling around, and as far as I can see, though I'm not sure, they're supposed to be a part of the e2fsprogs package. Well, it's installed on the system, at least

hello all, I am trying to expand my /var file system which resides on a logical volume. I successfully issued the lvextend command. However when I try to issue the ext2online command I receive a return code of 3 which the man pages indicates: ext2online /var ext2online v1.1.18 - 2001/03/18 for EXT2FS 0.5b ext2online: group 0, block 7 not reserved ext2online: unable to resize

Hi. I'm attempting to setup a box here to be a file-server for all my data. I'm attempting to resize an ext3 partition to demonstrate this capability to myself before fully committing to this system as the primary data storage. I'm having some problems resizing an ext3 filesystem after I've resized the underlying logical volume. Following the ext3 resize, fsck spits out lots

I installed CentOS on my home-server with 2 IDE 160GB MAXTOR HDD / RAID-1, LVM and ext3 partitions. Previous OS on this machine was FC2. I often "play" with LVM and, sometimes, have to extand or reduce some volumes size. I was surprised to see that resize2fs isn''t included anymore ! The replacing tool is ext2online but this one seems to only be able to grow a filesystem (not

I have a degraded raid array (originally raid-10, now only two drives) that contains an LVM volume. I can see in the appended text that the Xen domains are there but I don't see how to mount them. No doubt this is just ignorance on my part but I wonder if anyone would care to direct me? I want to be able to retrieve dom-0 and one of the dom-Us to do data recovery, the others are of

Hello I have some large Partiton at 2 GB, 4 GB, 7 GB, 13 GB, 25 GB. How big I need the journal for its? Could I resize ext3fs with resize2fs, ext2resize-1.17 (with ext2prepare, ext2online), parted-1.4.21 Tools?

I've been going along not noticing things happening right under my nose. so imagine my surprise when I discovered last night that my Centos 5 box has installed multiple new kernels over the last few months, as updates come out, and IT IS NOT BOOTING THE NEWST ONE. grub.conf says to boot kernel 0, and 0 is the newest one. but the one it actually boots is 6 or 8 down the list (clearly I've

Hi, I want to increase my harddisk space and receive the following error # lvextend -l +323 /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 Extending logical volume LogVol00 to 48.97 GB device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: Invalid argument Failed to suspend LogVol00 Can you help me please? # fdisk -l Disk /dev/hda: 54.7 GB, 54759997440 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 6657 cylinders Units =

I'd like to automate the upgrade from CentOS 4.6 to 5.1 as much as possible. Since upgrades per se are not really recommended, I'm planning to do a kickstart installation. However, I want to leave one of the existing partitions (/scratch) untouched during the installation. Here is my current layout (LogVol00 is swap so not shown in the df output below): # df -hl

Hello Group, I am building a company application based on Centos 5.7 OS. The application was working earlier and creating right partitions both for hardware as well as VM. But since we introduced Centos 5.7 OS and start building application with 5.7 anaconda the hardware partitions are duplicate of VM partitions *while creating hardware partition my code looks like.* cat >

Howdy, Does anyone know if anything has changed with the LVM system from CentOS 4.4 to CentOS 4.5? I'm having kind of a funky issue. I've mounted LVM partitions manually quite a few times and I've never had this issue before: --- Logical volume --- LV Name /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 VG Name VolGroup00 LV UUID
