The only issue that I'm aware of is that reiserfs uses way too much CPU time
on Linux/390.  The performance folks in Boeblingen are looking at it, but I
haven't heard an update on it since SHARE in DC.

There's nothing magic about reiserfs on Linux/390.  If you've found any
documentation on it for Intel Linux, it should apply just as well to
Linux/390.  Try "man resize_reiserfs" and see what comes up.

Subject: Filesystems and growing them online


A while back I asked about the adding of dasd without a reboot.  First,
thank you to all who answered I have proven the steps and everything
works.  Now I have a question about the growing of filesystems without
unmounting them.  It seems that most of the documentation I have found
discusses ext3 and / or ext2, not much on reiserfs, so my questions
include the following:

1. Is there an issue with reiserfs on the Z platform installs of Linux?
2. Is there a way of growing a filesystem without unmounting it?  I
thought you could do this with Reiserfs but I have found nothing that is
related to Reiserfs on the Z Platform.

Thanks!
