Package: reiserfsprogs
Version: 1:3.6.19-6
Severity: normal
Hello
I have /home on lvm's logical volume. I umounted /home, ran "resize_reiserfs
-s -10G /dev/v2/home". At this point everything looked fine. Then I resized
the logical volume to match the reiserfs's new size, ran reiserfsck
/dev/v2/home and everything seemed fine.
Couple days later I found out that there were some newer files missing from
my home dir. The file were created about 48h - 1h before the resizing.
Couple of users have also complained that some of their emails are missing
from imap-folders.
I'm really glad that I have backups =). I also learned not to reduze fs's sizes
anymore ;).
