I don't know what you mean by "dynamic", but you can resize ext3
filesystems with resize2fs. There is also a patch that allows online
resizing of ext3 filesystems (that is, resizing while the filesystem is
mounted). I don't know about the state of it, therefore I would avoid to
use it in production environments for the time being. Resize2fs should
be part of the e2fsprogs package in sles as far as I know (I don't have
a Sles at hand to verify that).
To avoid misinterpretion: I would feel safe to use resize2fs after
backup of a production system, then do an e2fsck -f before going
production again.
Online resize of ext3 feels too hot for me to use in production
systems, but that does also apply to reiserfs in general.

with kind regards,
Carsten
