Hammer and a (little) disk/partition shrink...

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

 



Probably a complex question, with a simple answer: NO. ;-)


I need to move disks from a ceph node (still on hammer) from an
hardware to another one. The source hardware have a simple SATA/SAS
controller, the 'new' server have a RAID controller with no JBOD mode
(the infamous HP P410i), so i need to create some 'RAID 0 with a single
disk' fake raid.

These controller, seems to ''eat'' some space at the end of the disk,
so (doing some tests) the disk does not get corrupted with the
'raid0-ification', but lost some bytes at the end, and linux then
complain that the (last) partition are corrupted.

hammer use filestore, so practically i need to shrunk an xfs
filesystem, that is not supported by XFS.
Clearly i can do 'xfsdump' of disks in some scratch space and rebuild
filesystem but...


I've some escape path?


Thanks.
