Re: shrink LV with ext3 filesystem

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




Is it possible that i log into the server with ssh and umount only /var and then resize the logical volume?

Yes, but you'll have to stop a lot of daemons and other processes that
run with files opened in /var.

You can find the processes accessing /var with lsof or fuser:
# fuser -mv /var
# lsof /var


I stopped all services except sshd and fuser and lsof doesn't show me any files, but i still can't unmount /var :-(

# umount /var
umount: /var: device is busy
umount: /var: device is busy

Ayn ideas?
