I'm running SLES 9 64bit just a playground for now (no maintenance)...And right now I'm playing with LVM but I don't appear to have command e2fsadm.
I dont have it either and I never felt the need to use it. I cheated. I used YaST for all LVM management. The only thing I have to constantly remind myself is, to be safe, always do a "mkinitrd" and "zipl" to make sure that the LVM comes up at next boot time. Looking at http://linux.about.com/library/cmd/blcmdl8_e2fsadm.htm , I see that e2fsadm allow you to resize mounted file systems as well. That is definitely a plus. resize2fs requires unmounting file systems. BTW, it would be nice to have some polymorphism here across file systems - same command that recognizes the file system and issue different commands. Perhaps there is a shell script to do it?
Anyone want to guess what I've done wrong?
