Hi,
How do I make growfs actually grow a gvinum disk on FreeBSD 5.3? I've read the man pages, the Handbook, and done some searching with no luck.
To help understand what I'm trying to accomplish here, I've created a filesystem that mounts to /export on a gvinum volume. The volume is configured as a mirror. I want to double it's size. To do this I used gvinum to add a subdisk to each plex of the mirror (this worked fine). gvinum now reports the volume as 32GB (it used to be 16GB).
The filesystem is still 16GB. When I unmount the filesystem and run growfs on the device it claims there is no space to grow:
# growfs -s 33554432 /dev/gvinum/export growfs: we are not growing (8388608 -> 8388608)
And yet
# disklabel /dev/gvinum/export
# /dev/gvinum/export:
3 partitions:
# size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
a: 33554432 0 4.2BSD 2048 16384 0
b: 33554432 0 swap
c: 33554432 0 unused 0 0 # "raw" part, don't edit
disklabel: partition c doesn't cover the whole unit!
disklabel: An incorrect partition c may cause problems for standard system utilities
better still:
# gvinum list
2 drives:
D a State: up /dev/ad1s1g A: 58662/108326 MB (54%)
D b State: up /dev/ad0s1g A: 58662/108326 MB (54%)
