Does it true ?! Do I have to use lvextend ?! don't I ?! With vgextend you grow a Volume Group (think about it like a resizable disk), with lvextend you grow a Logical Volume (like a resizable partition). > > and > > it's look like ext3 not good choise for resizing filesystem because ext2, > ReiserFS , xfs , jfs have more tools for extending ?! You can resize an unmounted ext3 with resize2fs (the ext2 resize tool). The steps you need to carry out for growing your VG and LV(s) are: # vgextend YourVGName /dev/dsk1 /dev/dsk2 # You did that already, right ? # lvextend -L+WhateverGrowths /dev/YourVGName/YourLVName # resize2fs /dev/YourVGName/YourLVName # Presumably this is ext2/3 Use the respective tools to resize any other filesystem type (eg, resize_reiserfs). > > > > > Best Regards .. > Vahric MUHTARYAN > > _______________________________________________ > linux-lvm mailing list > linux-lvm@redhat.com > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm > read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/ -- Regards, Heinz -- The LVM Guy -- *** Software bugs are stupid.
