Sorry , I am not very up to date:
do you plan both, an increase of the individual partitions,
and resizing by adding more disks ?
That would be too cool, having for example a 4 disks soft-RAID5 array
and when you run out of space, add one more disk, and let the resize
tool
recalculare all parities etc, in order to take the fifth disk into
account.
Is that possible form a pratical POV ?
Benno.
