similar to: notes on "resize ext3" tip

Hi, I am Wojtek Pilorz (username "Wojtek Pilorz"). I would like to discuss whether my method of creating Centos DVD image from CD images and the other way would be appropriate to be placed in tip named in subject; Would it be appropriate if I send scripts I use with method description a mail to the list for consideration? What I have is method for recreating bit-for-bit identical

e2fsck returns 1 in case of "file system errors corrected". We treat it as success in normal e2fsck, but fail if e2fsck is run by resize2fs. Change 'manual' execution of e2fsck to dedicated function call. --- daemon/ext2.c | 14 ++++---------- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) diff --git a/daemon/ext2.c b/daemon/ext2.c index 5dd67c7..95a65ae 100644 ---

Consider this section: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Software-RAID-HOWTO-4.html#ss4.14 I have not done this before and I'm leary about Step 11 which is resizing the filesystem after doing a mkraid command. This howto lacks any ext3 documentation. Some questions I have are: 1. Should I convert back to ext2 on all my filesystems before I do a mkraid? 2. If I leave the system at ext3, will the

After yum upgrade, the new CentOS5 kernel [ kernel-2.6.18-92.1.1.el5.i686 ] crashes each time early in boot process on Compaq ProLiant 3000 with dual Pentium3 CPU (600 MHz, CPU0: Intel Pentium III (Katmai) stepping 03, CPU1 the same). I get kernel panic at powernowk8_init+0x05e/0x1c3. The previous kernel [ kernel-2.6.18-53.1.21.el5.i686 ] seems to work fine. I am wondering if anyone has met

Hi folks, Is it possible to resize an ext3 filesystem while it's online? It looks like resize2fs won't do the trick unless the filesystem is unmounted. And ext2resize takes one look at the filesystem while it's mounted and complains as well, this time about un-supported features. It's not a huge deal if I have to shutdown the system to grow the two filesystems, it's just

Hi guys, I have Xen 3.0.3 installed with yum on Centos 5.1. I''am facing an issue trying to resize the disk image of a centos 4.5 VM. The VM disk size is 50Go and i need to add 150Go. I tried two methods so far : -------------1st method----------------------- dd if=/dev/zero of=<image file> bs=1M conv=notrunc count=1 seek=2500 * losetup /dev/loop0 <image file> * e2fsck -f

I am enclosing scripts and config files to generate exact copy of CentOS 5.0 i386 installation DVD image, that is CentOS-5.0-i386-bin-DVD.iso if you have CD images for i386. If there is interest I can post the same for x86_64. Please follow README files for instructions. All the scripts are GPL.

Hello Mailing List! A quick question. Has anyone gotten a resize (in my case grown) a Xen DomU disk image? Here is the procedure I have followed: 1. Install a DomU using virt-install Customize xvda to be all one partition ext3 2. On Dom0: dd if=/dev/zero bs=1G count=1 >> <my_disk_image> ll -h (Image is now 1GB larger) xm create <DomU> On DomU: df -h (Size has not

I have seen that file ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/OpenSSH/portable/openssh-3.4p1.tar.gz is continuosly changing. This seems strange to me as I expected it should be a 'frozen' file; The signature and diff file are still dated Jun 26. I am wondering whether this is intentional. Best regards, Wojtek

The way I''ve done it in the past is: 1. Make sure that xen domain is shut down that you are re-sizing 2. Run lvextend (you''ve already done this) 3. Run e2fsck -f [logical volume name] (i.e. /dev/domain0/lvname) 4. Run resize2fs [volume name] [new size in G of LV] (i.e. resize2fs /dev/domain0/lvname 8G 5. Start up vm. New size should be reflected now. HTH -----Original

Dear All, Let me quote a few lines from TODO file (SNAP-20010109): - Linux hangs for 20 seconds when you do "sleep 20&exit". All current solutions break scp or leaves processes hanging around after the ssh connection has ended. It seems to be linked to two things. One select() under Linux is not as nice as others, and two the children of the shell are not killed on

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=755729 This bug reports that the error message printed by the resize2fs API calls (which comes directly from the resize2fs command) says: Please run 'e2fsck -f /dev/vda1' first. That command is not possible from guestfish (where it would be 'e2fsck-f' or 'e2fsck ... forceall:true'). Fixing that bug caused this bug:

Please advice on what

Sometimes the user wants to know minimum size for dirty (e.g. mounted) filesystems. In this case, resize2fs -P will require calling e2fsck -f, while "in general, it is not safe to run e2fsck on mounted filesystems". Since resize2fs -P does not modify filesystem, we force it to display (probably approximate) minimum size. --- daemon/ext2.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1

I'm getting ready to add some memory to a server running RH7.3 with ext3. I'm going to need to add more space to the swap partition and so I'll also need to resize an ext3 partition. I've seen some posts by searching the list that the resize2fs should work fine, but the man pages don't mention anything about ext3. Version is: resize2fs 1.27 (8-Mar-2002) Has anyone actually
