Regarding Pauls' concern about a reboot after an online resize operation...
I once more created a 1GB LV. I created an ext3 fs in the LV. I mounted the FS. I created 900 1MB files, so FS is now at 90+% capacity. I did an lvextend to increase the LV to 2GB. I did an ext2online to resize the FS online. I unmounted the FS. I ran e2fsck on the FS (OFFLINE) - no problems I remounted the FS - no problems. I conclude that there would be no similar reboot problems (unmount, e2fsck,mount) that would directly relate to the resize operation. Paul, is your system SLES10 SP1 plus latest YOU? mark ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
