Yes, this has been fixed quite a while ago. :-) Online resize with flex_bg was fixed in 2012 --- call with the v3.10 kernel or so.
Offline resize was fixed around that time (e2fsprogs 1.43), but there have been some bugs with flex_bg and off-line resizing, so I'd recommend using at least e2fsprogs 1.44.x if you want to off-line resize file systems with flex_bg. And on-line resizing is actually going to be safer in general --- mainly because it's less capable --- the scary bits with off-line resizing are things that on-line resize can't do, like shrink the file system or move the inode table around to make room for more block group descriptors than were originally reserved at mkfs time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/575542 Title: resize2fs does not respect flex_bg To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/e2fsprogs/+bug/575542/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
