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

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

Hi, As someone new to puppet I''m trying to work out the best way to manage different filesystems and logical volumes on different servers. Specifically I would like to be able to define on a series of nodes different LVM logical volumes to create and mount. I''m trying to do this at the moment with a define of the following type: # Manage a partition and create if needed.

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

Hi, I''m using puppet 2.7.3 on RHEL/CentOS and I have an issue which is now a big blocking issue within my environment. What I''m trying to accomplish wit puppet is a create a mountpoint, mount a filesystem on it and install an application on that filesystems are set proper user/ group and permissions on it, but it fails big time. The issues I currently run into are about 3

-- Hi. I'm running Ubuntu Precise 12.04 LTS. I created some virtual machines using vmbuilder, and then migrated those from their .qcow files to lvm. However, those virtual machines are still using disk type "file": Code: <disk type='file' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/> <source

Greetings - I had a logical volume that was running out of space on a virtual machine. I successfully expanded the LV using lvextend, and lvdisplay shows that it has been expanded. Then I went to expand the filesystem to fill the new space (# resize2fs -p /dev/vde1) and I get the results that the filesystem is already xx blocks long, nothing to do. If I do a # df -h, I can see that the

Not a centos specific question here, but if anyone can save me from shooting myself in the foot would appreciate any pointers.... I have an older centos 4.7 box that I recently replaced with a newer one running centos 5.3. I'd like to add the hard disk from the older one to the newer one before I scrap it for good. I don't care about the data on it, would just like the extra drive

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

I now how to expand a LVM by creating a new drive as described here: http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2007-February/032664.html, the steps are: # pvcreate /dev/sda3 # vgextend VolGroup00 /dev/sda3 Now, I want to know how to expand a LVM without create /dev/sda3? Suppose I have 2 GB free (unpartitioned) and LVM use /dev/sda2 (8 GB). How to make /dev/sda2 become 10 GB? Then resize LVM

I have a series of unmounted lv's that are used in xen vm's of various flavors in a lab environment. I made a script that I use to backup all of them prior to doing anything I may need to undo and all I execute is: dd if=/dev/vgname/lvname of=/dir/name.img Are there any additional parameters I should use? I haven't tried to restore this into an lv, but I did swap the 'phy'

I have a database server that is running out of space. All my databases are being stored in a 80G /opt partition. Because I'm using LVM, wouldn't I be able to pop the HDDs (a h/w raid volume) in, add it to the LVM, and resize my ext3 /opt partition? Everything that I've been reading says this is possible, but I'm not sure. Has anyone done this and are there any pitfalls to

Hi all, I have a disk of 146Gb in a machine intended to have mainly mysql database, apache and some web data.?

Just discovered that on CentOS 4.1 when you issue the command: lvcreate -s -n temp -L2G /dev/vgname/lvname to create a snapshot, you get the error message: snapshot: Required device-mapper target(s) not detected in your kernel I've checked and recheck my spelling and tried using the device created under /dev/mapper. I've tried it on both x86_64 and on i386. Works as expected under

Hi This topic is perhaps not for this list, but it I'm running on a CentOS 4.4 and it seems that a lot of people here uses 3Ware and RAID volumes. I did a RAID migration on a 3Ware 9590SE-12, so that an exported disk grew from 700GB to 1400GB. The exported disk is managed by LVM. The problem now is that I don't really know what to do now to let LVM and my locigal volume to make use of
