I would like to increase the size of my /var partition. It is a logical
volume so I made it bigger with lvexpand. I then ran resize2fs, which
according to the man page works on mounted file systems with kernels
after 2.6 and my kernel is 2.6.22-3-k7. However, this is the output of
the command:
resize2fs 1.40.3 (05-Dec-2007)
Filesystem at /dev/vg0/var is mounted on /var; on-line resizing required
old desc_blocks = 1, new_desc_blocks = 2
resize2fs: Filesystem does not support online resizing
The mount command gives:
/dev/mapper/vg0-var on /var type ext3 (rw)
Is online resizing a compile time flag that debian doesn't set?
lvdisplay now gives:
--- Logical volume ---
LV Name /dev/vg0/var
VG Name vg0
LV UUID SnuTgs-0Lvs-2BmS-TqQ8-Onj0-3xss-SrMjPS
LV Write Access read/write
LV Status available
# open 1
LV Size 25.00 GB
Current LE 6400
Segments 3
Allocation inherit
Read ahead sectors 0
Block device 254:2
but df still gives:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/vg0-var 15G 12G 2.1G 86% /var
Has the file system been expanded or not? Do I need to reboot to get
things in sync? I can't unmount/mount /var since many processes use it.
