That's right, reiserfs can be resized dynamically. On mission critical i found its better to to a backup befor resize. man resize_reiserfs has a note, this is a BETA program and may corrupt filesystems. From this point i use ext3 with LVM and resize only offline on produktion system. How it looks with support from redhat on rhas 2.1 with LVM. There is no LVM included. I think RHAS 3.0 has LVM included and will be availabe soon. regards, thomas ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Purcell" <redhat@xxxxxx> To: <redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, October 03, 2003 9:48 PM Subject: reiserfs + LVM > Has anyone used LVM with reiserfs filesystems on a RHEL AS 2.1 production > system before?
