>Just like XFS the JFS file system must be mounted to be resized and the mount-point is specified rather than the device name. You need at least Version 1.0.21 of the jfs-utils to do this.
># mount -o remount,resize /home
So I tried to mount the drive but failed, and since then have not been able to activate the volume, resize the filesystem, or do anything remotely useful.
I've seen a lot of search results with similar symptoms (device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: Invalid argument), but the solutions have all been situation specific and I'm missing the general principal and the specific application for this situation.
I've included some information below, and would appreciate any help/pointers.
Thanks,
Phil
