We'll look at this, but do you have any more information about how exactly to reproduce this? I use lvextend + ext2online regularly without problems. Hi Stephen. One extra datapoint: after reboot, my filesystem was completely hosed. e2fsck -y took hours to complete, generated > 100 MB output. Upon completion, most files were corrupted. That sucked. This is what I did: 1. Filesystem was mounted. 2. I extended the partition with 'lvextend -l +1 /dev/xxx' 3. I ran 'ext2only /dev/xxx' That's it. That was on an up-to-date FC5 x86_64 system. From a cursory look at the crash, and given what e2fsck was complaining, I suspect htrees (aka. dir_index) is involved. But I have no hard data backing this up. Should I try to reproduce the problem? Apologies for this, but I'm going to close this bug, as ext2online is deprecated in favor of resize2fs, which can also do online resizing. ext2online is no longer shipped with Fedora, at least as of FC6. -Eric |
