That would be only for LVM logical volumes right? Since extending a minidisk with an ext2 filesystem on it is not really an option. Both ext2 and ReiserFS come with a resize tool, but I think neither does it while the filesystem is online (unless you buy code for it). With Linux on z/VM you have at least the easy option to mount the filesystem in another Linux guest and resize it while the owner is down. That way you can avoid starting from ramdisk system to resize the root filesystem.
