Hi,
I have a small ebs amazon ec2 instance and i want to know , is there a way
i can have the root partition of full available size which is of 160 GB.
currently sda1 which is of root is of size 10 Gb.
and /mnt of 150 GB.
In other words i want to resize to 160 GB so that other 150 GB available to
/mnt is also available to '/' .
Pl. advice, i have raised this ques on amazon discussion forums but of no
use (no reply), also i dont want to create a new instance of size 160 GB.
but to resize one.
Is it possible?
As others have mentioned it is not possible. I would also add that even
using LVM it wont be possible ( maybe technically possible but very bad
idea). You see that while 10GB is an EBS volume which is persistent by
default, the 150GB is ephemeral storage that means if for some reason
your instance shutdown or you restart the instance that storage will be
reset too with any data on it gone forever. So any attempt trying to
create a combined volume, if at all possible, can potentially result in
disaster.
