Hi, This is a common complaint about gfs. Frankly, I'm surprised that it's not in the FAQ (I should add it). GFS will only let you add a journal if you have space on your DEVICE that's not already dedicated to the file system. In other words, you have to add storage to the volume, then do gfs_jadd BEFORE doing gfs_grow. If you use gfs_grow after adding storage, it will allocate all the free space to the file system and therefore has no room for any new journals. This problem was addressed in GFS2 where the journals are actually part of the file system. So in GFS2 you can add journals dynamically. In GFS, you have to add storage, resize your lv, then gfs_jadd.
