resize2fs

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hi All:

I am trying to resize a centos (5.2) VM drive.  I use VMware and I have 
increased the size of the drive by 40G.  I am running resize2fs on 
/dev/sdb1 (which is my root partition)  but when I do I get this error:

[root@centos ~]# resize2fs /dev/sdb1 120G
resize2fs 1.39 (29-May-2006)
The containing partition (or device) is only 19970795 (4k) blocks.
You requested a new size of 31457280 blocks.

How can I change the block size?

I have also tried to use gparted live cd but it will not allow me to 
increase the size even though it sees 40g of unused space.  I can only 
create a new partition.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Ed
