Hi, all,
After I used LVM2 to create PV, VG, LV on the attached storage
disks, I want to format logical volume as a file system and
possibly extend the file system of LV online. But when I prefer to
âext3â file system, I find the tool âresize2fsâ only can resize
ext3 file system offline.
OS: Linux Fedora Core2(kernel 2.6.7-1.494.2.2smp)
LVM version: 2.00.15(2004-04-19)
Library version: 1.00.14-ioctl(2004-04-06)
Driver version: 4.1.0
Operations:
pvcreate /dev/sda
pvcreate /dev/sdb
vgcreate vg1 /dev/sda /dev/sdb
lvcreate âL 100G ân lv1 vg1
mke2fs /dev/vg1/lv1
mount /dev/vg1/lv1 /mnt
lvextend âL +50G /dev/vg1/lv1
Then I used âresize2fsâ tool to extend file system, but failed.
I know it must be done when âumountâ the lv1.
If another tool can finish that running under Linux?
Or if any other file system can be mounted and resized online under
Linux?
XFS? I donât know.
Anyone can help me? Thanks!

You can try ReiserFS, which does allow to be resized while mounted.
