        also I cant create a new lvm don't have that
            much space and the to extend the new one and it would mean
            downtime . don't think it's an issue with filesystem tools ,
            lvm has NEVER been consistent in my case .

          
    The resize2fs on RHEL5 does not support ext4.  Your error message is
    the one reported when you try to resize an ext4 filesystem with
    ext2/ext3 tools.  You need to either install e4fsprogrs and use
    resize4fs (and e4fsck), or do the resize in the virtual machine you
    are apparently running a newer OS in.
