Thanks but that doesn't seems to be the correct solution :(

# mount /dev/VG00/GCN 

# ext2online /dev/VG00/GCN
ext2online v1.1.18 - 2001/03/18 for EXT2FS 0.5b
ext2online: new size is same as current (262144)

# umount /dev/VG00/GCN 

# ext2online /dev/VG00/GCN
ext2online v1.1.18 - 2001/03/18 for EXT2FS 0.5b
ext2online: can't find /dev/mapper/VG00-GCN, is it mounted?
usage: ext2online [...]

Am I doing something wrong or is ext2online not the correct tool for this ?

Gilles.
