no fs can be reduced whilst mounted, most especially the inode based ones This makes reducing / somewhat tricky as requires system downtime. The usual approach sysadmins use is to estimate size conservatively and make them larger as needed (effectively avoiding reducing any as much as possible). -- Alan McKinnon [email protected]
