Greetings - I shutdown one of my Centos 6.2 VMs for some offline maintenance and am now unable to get it to restart. I am also unable to create and start a new VM. The host system is Centos 6.2, fully up to date. I have been searching Google for two days and have not been successful in getting a VM to start. I have restarted libvirtd, but did not want to shutdown my other two running VMs and

I have a laptop that I put centos 7 on and I started out with a 30gig partition.? I resized the other part of the disk to allow more space for centos.? I then created an unformated partition in the available space,? ran pvcreate /dev/sda4 vgextend lvname /dev/sda4 lvextend -L 184.46G /dev/lvname/root but when I run: sudo resize2fs /dev/lvname/root I get: resize2fs: Bad magic

Sorry for my ignorance. When I create xen virtual machines on lvm I need to create a filesystem on lvm container? _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

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

Greetings - I am going through some testing steps to expand a logical volume and the corresponding filesystem on a KVM guest and have run across a deficiency in my knowledge. I spent the afternoon yesterday googling for answers, but had have come up blank still. What I am trying to do is resize the file system to use the additional disk space that I added to the logical volume that the

Hello, I am using Xen 4.0.1 and Xen 3.2.1 dom0 with Debian Lenny and Squeeze dom0s. I have a bunch of virtual machines running , all using LVM as backend storage. Mostly, an LVM logical volume is mapped to a partition in the VM (eg: xvda1) I have tried to hot resize the filesystem in the VM without umounting it but it just do not work... Here is what I did: - lvextend on the dom0, -

I found a thread that has almost the exact same symptoms as me, but didn't seem to come to a resolution: https://listman.redhat.com/archives/ext3-users/2004-December/msg00018.html I have an LVM(2) array that I've just lvextend'd and want to resize2fs, but I can't get through the e2fsck. I get these errors when fsck-ing: Group 3125's inode table at 102400545 conflicts with

I came across an old post comment yesterday (from http://echenh.blogspot.com/2010/04/how-to-extend-lvm-on-vmware-guest-os.html ) discussing the "hack" of LVM on Linux VM guests and whether it's better not to use it to simplify disk management. I've re-posted the comment below, does it sound reasonable? Is it better to not use LVM on Linux VM guests? --Russell

Greetings - I have stepped through the first guest OS installation (a testing VM) on my new server and have a technical question that I hope someone might be able to help me with. I have exhausted my google search ability and have not been able to find the details I am looking for. In general the question I am trying to answer is how to select and use multiple raw logical volumes when

Hey all, I''m trying to figure out how to re-size physical partitions in the Dom U. I''ve read up what I can find on line and finally decided to have Logical Volumes in the Dom 0 and pass them as physical volumes for use in the Dom U. Here''s an example of what I''m doing. To start in the Dom 0 I created the LV''s with lvcreate -n guest_boot -L 100M

Hello everybody, I''m playing with Xen and trying to extend DomU disk space. My Configuration: Dom0: all Xen machine are HVM. They''re installed on LVM. I''ve one VG (XEN) on Dom0 and created a LV (here, xps.101.disk) per DomU. disk configuration in xen conf is as follow: disk = [ ''phy:/dev/XEN/xps.%d.disk,ioemu:hda,w'' % (vmid)

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

Hi, I'm needing to expand a LUN on my EMC CX4-120 SAN. (Well I already had done it). On this LUN I had a PV of a cLVM VG. Know I need to run pvresize on it. Has anybody done this on a cLVM PV ? I'm trying to rescan the devices, but I can't "see" the new size. And, googling on it I can only find RHEL5.2 responses. Thanks in advance,

Hi list. I''m running Xen 4.0.1 on Debian. I''m trying to live resize a block device : - I have a arbitrary block device in my dom0 (/dev/mapper/vm-vol42). - I start a PV domain with that device as a disk (disk = [''phy:/dev/mapper/vm-vol42,xvda,w'']). - I resize vm-vol42 in the dom0 (adding size only) - the dom0 sees the device''s new size. -

Dear CentOS-Community, we have a server with four hard drives that are configured as raid10 (/dev/sda). Now, /home and /root are almost full. Therefore, we decided to buy four additional hard drives that should configured also as raid 10 (/dev/sdb). I want to use LVM to extend disk space for root and home. My (successful) test procedure in a virtual environment looks like this: 1. devide

I did a default install and after installing some other things I realized that a lot of space was allocated to /home as an lvm that is never going to be used. Is it possible to remove the lvm and grow the root (xfs) filesystem without starting over? -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com

Hi all! I've got a VM at work running C6 on HyperV (no, its not my fault, that's what the company uses. I'd rather gag myself than own one of th ose things.) I ran out of disk space in the VM, so the admin enlarged the virtual disk. but now I realize I don't know how to enlarge the partition and its filesystem. I'll be googling, but in case I miss it, it'd be great if

Hi guys, I''ve seen this post regarding "lvm resize" and this contains all the information I need to resize a disk inside domU : http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2006-11/msg00019.html >From this post: "With this I can extend the LVs in the Dom0, and either shutdown the DomU and resize2fs from Dom0 or even (tested on test VMs and low-use
