Description Jonathon Conte 2016-04-13 23:18:40 UTC
I'm running blivet-gui 1.0.6 on Fedora 23.

When extending the size of an LVM logical partition, blivet-gui appears to increase the size of the filesystem first and the size of the logical volume second. If that is the case, this order is backwards and risks data corruption.

When reducing the size an LVM logical partition, blivet-gui gets the order right (filesystem first, logical volume second). It is only when it grows a logical volume that it is backwards.

Comment 1 Vojtech Trefny 2016-04-14 08:31:23 UTC
Hi, blivet actually sorts actions before executing them, so the resize is performed always in "right" order. The problem is the sort is done after adding the actions in GUI so the list of actions is not updated and shows actions (and also exection of actions) in wrong order.

So there is a bug in the UI but no risk of data loss.

Ah, okay. Thank you for the clarification that this bug is not dangerous.
