Just an FYI, using the resize= option in mkfs.ext4 was not intuitive.
Sometimes the number of GDT blocks reserved was smaller when specifying
a larger resize= number.
Instead we created an LV that was 1/1,000th our estimated maximum,
created a filesystem on it with mkfs.ext4, and then resized it t
The way we discovered this issue was by creating a small generic install
of Ubuntu with an LVM containing several small LVs, creating an image of
the install, and then pushing out the image to client machines. The
full size of the image was < 1 GB with most of the LVs < 100 MB, which
made pushing
Yes, this is a known restriction right now. Note that we reserve
enough GDT blocks so you can grow the filesystem by a factor of 1024 of
the initial size. So in practice the limitation is rather hard to hit
except in rather extreme artificial test cases.
Yes, if you initially create a filesyst
Most likely e2fsprogs as tune2fs, mkfs.ext3, mkfs.ext4, and resize2fs
are all components of that package.
