Hi,
I'd like to expand the /root partition of a partitioned-OS on an LV.
Combinations of pv/lv/vg extend,resize, etc as well as resize2fs,
parted, fdisk have mainly resulted in garbage.
Here's what I'm trying to do:
I've a VolumeGroup, "VG_MAIN" sized @ 50GB. It's empty/unused, except
for a 3GB LV,
/dev/VG_MAIN/test
LV(/dev/VG_MAIN/test) contains a deployable/bootable Xen DomU OS.
LV(/dev/VG_MAIN/test) has two partitions
kpartx -av /dev/VG_MAIN/test
add map VG_MAIN-test1 (253:13): 0 192717 linear /dev/VG_MAIN/test 63
add map VG_MAIN-test2 (253:14): 0 6056505 linear /dev/VG_MAIN/test 192780
partition(VG_MAIN-test1) is formatted as
/boot, ext3, 100MB
partition(VG_MAIN-test2) itself contains a single VolumeGroup, "vg0",
partitioned into to LV's,
vgchange -ay vg0
lvs | grep vg0
LVROOT vg0 -wi-a- 2.31G
LVSWAP vg0 -wi-a- 512.00M
i.e., the partitioning "looks" like,
HD
VG(VG_MAIN) -> 3G
LV(test) -> 100%
PART(1) = /boot, ext3 -> 100MB
PART(2) -> *
VG(vg0) -> 100%
LV(LVSWAP) -> 512 MB
PART(1) = swap, swap -> *
LV(LVROOT) -> *
***-> PART(1) = /, ext3 -> * i.e., ~ 2.31 GB
QUESTION --
I'd like to EXPAND the Xen DomU image by +9B to 12GB, total, adding
the add'l 9GB space to the currently 2.31GB last (***->) partition.
Can I do that? If so, how?
Wil
