Hi, As per subject, is there a way to reduce diskspace for a VM. I have a VM with 200GB but would like to reduce the diskspace to 100GB. Please advise. Thanks!

Hi, I have a server running CentOS 5.5 with KVM capabilities. I need to migrate all the VMs to another server with the exact same hardware specs. The problem is it is running on individual harddisks, not shared storage. What is the best way to migrate to minimise downtime? Thanks!

Hi, New here... I would like to setup shorewall on a dedicated box protecting a mutiple web, mail and dns server in the datacenter. All the ip address will be public ip (No LAN setup). I would also like to do traffic shaping and install Snort as well in the same box. Can Shorewall do all this? Is there any docs on that? Do i need to configure Shorewall as a bridging firewall in order to do

Hi, Let me know if this is the wrong place to ask... I''m using Fedora 12 x86_64, mostly with the newer 21.6.32 kernel, and have a single btrfs filesystem within a 120Gb partition. I''d like to extend the space btrfs can use. One option is presumably add a new device to btrfs, but I was hoping to simple resize the existing partition to say 160Gb. With ext4 I might do

Hi All, I feel this is the most simple question but I am currently going around and round in circles and searches keep bringing me up Windows tools!! :-( I have a 512MB USB drive that has a 12MB FAT16 partition on it. How can I resize this 12MB partition to grow and fill the whole 512MB drive? Just in case I am being stupid, here is what I am doing... :-) I would like a quick USB drive that

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

Hi, I have one KVM instance (centos 5) that keeps crashing and i see the message log with the following: Oct 14 16:24:48 localhost kernel: psmouse.c: Explorer Mouse at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost synchronization, throwing 1 bytes away.

Hi, I was wondering if there was a way to extend (ie: grow) a PV that is part of a Volume Group? I currently have a partition on my HD that is being used as a PV for my Volume Group, but would like to make it larger. I have the space on my drive to extend my partition, but using standard tools (ex: gparted, Partition Magic, etc) would likely end up corrupting the data on in the Logical Volumes

Hi Guy, Anyone know how we can set up the vnc password during using virt-install command ? # virt-install \ --connect qemu:///system \ --name demo \ --ram 500 \ --disk path=/var/lib/libvirt/images/demo.img,size=5 \ --network network=default,model=virtio \ --vnc \ --cdrom /dev/cdrom

Hi, I do a tgz-backup some maildir-folders with n*1000 off files and a lot of GB in storage. The backuped maildirs are removed after the tar. My assumption was, that the free diskspace should be bigger after that, but from what I get with df, it looks like I'm loosing space. Currently the tgz is saved on the same disk/mountpoint. Any hint, why removing the maildirs dont free diskspace as

Good day, Gparted is not available on my installation. Which patition tool is available in centos 5.5 please. Thanks Johan

Hi All, I am trying to install extlinux on a fresh system. Here are my steps : ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ A) Create an ext2 partition. I did the following steps : 1) boot from CD 2) Activate GParted 3) Create Partition table on the "fresh disk" (/dev/sda). 4) Create 1 ext2 partition (and mark its flag as "boot"). B)mkdir /mnt/Ext2_partition C) mount /dev/sda1

Yes, you can: whenever you are unable to make a decent backup at least once a week, your diskspace must be considered to big.

parted fs resize is deprecated. http://savannah.gnu.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=6837 parted fs move can only move a partition into free space https://www.gnu.org/software/parted/manual/html_node/move.html The thing to do here is use gparted live or Fedora live media and yum/dnf install gparted. It has a move/resize option that will do what the OP wants. Chris Murphy

Hi, I have a 24TB RAID6 disk with a GPT partition table on it. I need to partition it into 2 partitions one of 16TB and 1 of 8TB to put ext4 filesystems on both. But I really need to do this remotely. ( if I can get to the site I could use gparted ) Now fdisk doesn't understand GPT partition tables and pat
