Hello One of the client has a bladeframe that contains two linux nodes(one is prode and other one is test both have the same OS and are virtualized ) and I have a primergy that has a virtualized linux node on it by using vmware On client system there is a lun(EMC) that contains one partition /dev/sde1 , the partition is already enveloped by LVM , they have increased the lun but I need to increase the physical partition /dev/sde1 , I have created the following procedure that is working on virtualized linux node on primergy umount /partition that must be increased pvdisplay /dev/sde2 | grep VG vgchange -a n myvg fdisk /dev/sde delete the partition and recreate a new one with same start cylinder and increase the number of cylinder pvresize /dev/sde1 vgchange -a y myvg reiserfsck /dev/myvg/mylv but on bladeframe when I use the fdisk to increase the partition the system destroy everything the physical volume reject the partion /dev/sde1 (when I run pvdisplay it's not on the list anymore)and all the data is destroyed I got a feeling that fdisk remove the /dev/sda1 and re-create a new one here is the kernel information concerning the bladeframe #cat /etc/SuSE-release SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 (x86_64) VERSION = 10 PATCHLEVEL = 1 # uname -a Linux 2.6.16.46-0.12-smp #1 SMP Thu May 17 14:00:09 UTC 2007 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux And the virtualized node on primergy #cat SuSE-release SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 (i586) VERSION = 10 PATCHLEVEL = 1 SLES10-LVM:/etc # uname -a Linux 2.6.16.46-0.12-default #1 Thu May 17 14:00:09 UTC 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux We come up with another solution to create a new partion Fdisk new partition pvcreate /dev/sde2 vgextend myVG /dev/sde2 but this is not the right one Regards Behzad Find it at CarPoint.com.au New, Used, Demo, Dealer or Private? |
