Hello Mailing List!
A quick question. Has anyone gotten a resize (in my case grown) a Xen
DomU disk image?
Here is the procedure I have followed:
1. Install a DomU using virt-install
Customize xvda to be all one partition ext3
2. On Dom0:
dd if=/dev/zero bs=1G count=1 >> <my_disk_image>
ll -h (Image is now 1GB larger)
xm create <DomU>
On DomU:
df -h (Size has not changed)
shutdown -h now
On Dom0:
e2fsck -f <my_disk_image> (Errors Bad Magic...)
resize2fs -f <my_disk_image> (Errors Bad Magic...)
xm create <DomU>
On DomU:
df -h (Still reports old size)
I am assuming that because resize2fs didn't run that the DomU doesn't
know about the additional space.
Thanks in advance!
