SYNOPSIS
xfs_growfs [ -dilnrx ] [ -D size ] [ -e rtextsize ] [ -L size ] [ -m maxpct ] [ -t mtab ] [ -R size ] mount-point
Point xfs_growfs at the mountpoint, not the device.
(ditto for xfs_info, btw) Newer versions may be more flexible here, but for now, it's behaving as documented in the manpages. |
Description of problem: When trying to grow an XFS filesystem, I get an error: xfs_growfs: /dev/mapper/RHEL7CSB-Root is not a mounted XFS filesystem Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEL 8 xfsdump-3.1.8-2.el8.x86_64 xfsprogs-4.19.0-2.el8.x86_64 Steps to Reproduce: 1. [root@ohaessle ~]# df -h | grep Root /dev/mapper/RHEL7CSB-Root 49G 6.9G 42G 15% / 2. [root@ohaessle ~]# lvresize -L +50G /dev/mapper/RHEL7CSB-Root /dev/sda: open failed: No medium found Size of logical volume RHEL7CSB/Root changed from 50.00 GiB (12800 extents) to 100.00 GiB (25600 extents). Logical volume RHEL7CSB/Root successfully resized. 3. [root@ohaessle ~]# xfs_growfs /dev/mapper/RHEL7CSB-Root xfs_growfs: /dev/mapper/RHEL7CSB-Root is not a mounted XFS filesystem 4. [root@ohaessle ~]# xfs_info /dev/mapper/RHEL7CSB-Root xfs_info: /dev/mapper/RHEL7CSB-Root contains a mounted filesystem fatal error -- couldn't initialize XFS library Actual results: I can not get info or extend an xfs partition Expected results: Partition + FS should be extended to 100GB
