FWIW, I generally use lvresize and only on unmounted file-systems.
I'm pretty much sure that is what the warning is trying to tell you.
Having an active filesystem during a resize operation sounds
dangerous to me.
(I've not used LV's much recently)
I use "lvresize -L+${size}G --resizefs ${name}" often and its very
safe to do on a live file system.
To shrink or grow? And which filesystem?
-L is the option, the + following says increase. I believe the lvresize
and lvextend commands are filesystem agnostic.
I, too, use these commands on mounted filesystems and have never had a
bad experience ( knock on wood ;)
Ok, growing is fine, but the OP needed to shrink one as well which can't
be done live.
