Hi all,
I've used LVM2 in the past, and have followed the
steps in the LVM HOWTO, but have run into problems trying to grow a reiser3
filesystem. The filesystem has worked fine for several months, but now I'm
trying to make it larger...
I've added a pv and am showing free
PE's:
--- Volume group
---
VG Name vg System ID Format lvm2 Metadata Areas 2 Metadata Sequence No 11 VG Access read/write VG Status resizable MAX LV 0 Cur LV 1 Open LV 1 Max PV 0 Cur PV 2 Act PV 2 VG Size 2.44 TB PE Size 4.00 MB Total PE 639113 Alloc PE / Size 320597 / 1.22 TB Free PE / Size 318516 / 1.22 TB VG UUID bADYIh-N4mr-LTJS-5h6b-izph-pgpT-exoOTh ....and I can plug those free PE's into
lvextend:
lvextend -l+318516
/dev/vg/lv
> Extending logical volume lv to 2.44 TB > Logical volume lv successfully resized ....but resize_reiserfs gives errors:
resize_reiserfs
/dev/vg/lv
> resize_reiserfs 3.6.19 (2003 www.namesys.com) >
> bread: Cannot read the
block (328029183): (Invalid argument).

partition is not big enough to contain the

runs. How can I tell if this is a LVM2 error providing wrong sizes... or if it's
reiserfs tools having the problems? If I lvreduce things to the initial size I
can remount things OK, and reiserfsck reports no errors.
This is an AMD2700+ system running 2.6.13.4, a
ReiserFS3 3.6 filesystem w/ v3.6.19 reiserfsprogs, and LVM2 v2.01.09
utils
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks!
Mike
