Thank you. Can you confirm if this behaviour is expected? Or am I
experiencing a bug?
What exactly? You did this resize manually outside the knowledge of
cloudstack, am I correct?
How did you do this live/recovery method?

Hi
I managed to resize the VM itself back to 60 GB via live/recovery
method. However, now in Cloudstack it still says the volume remains
120 GB and when I want to shrink it I am presented with the errors
from my previous reply. Is there a way around this? Such as making a
database change. Also, is this the expected behaviour for a KVM host?
This is recorded in the table 'volumes'. If you decrease the size to
60GB there is should show properly.

Hi Wei
It seems you're right you cannot shrink the volume in Cloudstack:
Failed to resize volume operation of volume UUID:
[eec8285e-8715-441b-b418-b71b231f1bab] due to - Unable to shrink
volumes of type QCOW2
Going from existing size of 128849018880 to size of 64424509440
would shrink the volume.Need to sign off by supplying the shrinkok
parameter with value of true.

Hi Wido,
Does it work with kvm ?
my suggestion would be
- create a new vm with 60GB
- copy the data using `rsync`

Hi,
Yes, you should make sure the filesystem and partitions are within
the
to be set new boundaries.
Once that's done you can shrink the volume.
I would recommend:
- Shrink EXT4 + Partitions to 59GB
- Shrink volume to 60GB
- Grow EXT4 + Partitions to 60GB
The step to 59GB is to prevent that by calc mistake you chip off the
last portion of your filesystem.

Hi Guys
Anyone willing to assist me with a quick one. What's the best and
recommended way to shrink a VM volume via UI? The VM volume was
first 60
GB, we then expended it to 120 GB and increased it in the VM via
parted.
I now want to take it back to 60GB. How do I proceed? Do I first
shrink
the ext4 in the VM first then proceed to shrink the volume in
Cloudstack
UI by selecting also the "Shrink OK" option? Detailed steps would be
appreciated, please.
