No experience with amazon here, but I routinely resize filesystems online without issues. Repartition xvda so that xvda1 is the size you want (make sure you use the same start sector, just change the end of the partition). Run partprobe and confirm that fdisk -l /dev/xvda1 shows the new size. (You may need to reboot). After that just run resize2fs /dev/xvda1 (works online). - Nathan _______________________________________________ CentOS-virt mailing list CentOS-virt@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-virt
