| why do you have to unmount it? If you are using LVM and ext2/3 you

| lvextend -L +<SIZE> /dev/volgroupname/var_volume

thanks for this info

| resize2fs /dev/volgroupname/var_volume

It seems that it is dangerous to use this:

<lvm-howto>
Unless you have patched your kernel with the ext2online patch it is
necessary to unmount the file system before resizing it. (It seems that
the online resizing patch is rather dangerous, so use at your own risk)
</lvm-howto>
