https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200371 Bug ID: 200371 Summary: Unable to Mount… EXT4: First Meta block group too large Product: File System Version: 2.5 Kernel Version: 3.10.0-514.26.2.el7.x86_64 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: ext4 Assignee: fs_ext4@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reporter: mcolgin@xxxxxxxxx Regression: No ERROR ===== EXT4-fs (dm-46): first meta block group too large: 1152 (group descriptor block count 1096) Environment =========== I have a filesystem, which is ext4, on a machine with 4.17.2-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64. The logical volume is 8.56 TiB. This filesystem has been resized many times since it was first created. e2fsck ====== e2fsck 1.42.9 (28-Dec-2013) /dev/vg_areca/lv_MYLVNAME: clean, 59060/574488576 files, 2294844696/2297954304 blocks DESC ==== After the last "resize2fs", I started receiving this error via "dmesg". I was running kernel 3.10.0-514.26.2.el7.x86_64 and after some googling, found that the current version of linux corrected a bug that produced this error. However, after updating the kernel, I am still getting the error. My thoughts are that my multiple resizes has surfaced an issue, but I'm not sure how to address it.
