With lvm1 you can use e2fsadm: # e2fsadm -L +2G /dev/volume_group/logical_volume With lvm2 you need to do manually what e2fsadm does: # lvresize -L +2G /dev/volume_group/logical_volume # e2fsck -f /dev/volume_group/logical_volume # resize2fs /dev/volume_group/logical_volume The above adds 2 GB to the volume Reducing the size is similar for lvm1: # e2fsadm -L -2G /dev/volume_group/logical_volume With lvm2 it's a bit more tricky, as resizefs needs to run first so must be given an exact amount, and possibly round the numbers differently than the LVM tools so give it some headroom (haven't investigated how tight is safe to go): # e2fsck -f /dev/volume_group/logical_volume 58000M # resize2fs /dev/volume_group/logical_volume # lvresize -L 59500M /dev/volume_group/logical_volume The above cuts off approx. 2GB from a 60GB volume. - Jonas - -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ - Enden er nær: http://www.shibumi.org/eoti.htm -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDn5sHn7DbMsAkQLgRAlifAJ9VuV1aIE/jwHqRuZ7cSryxE3JoZwCgiS/A Cl4QQtjXt39WGkOUdMa8g8M= =u7xX -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
