Re: Resizing ReiserFS on SUSE Ent 9
No.
as SP3 is also too old(I think it was released in 2006), So a lot many updates/features/fixes you are missing.
as you already performed the proper method of resizing, I suspect that it might be a issue/limitation of reiserfs module, that shipped with SLES 9 SP3.
If it is possible, try to upgrade only the "reiserfs" package from sles9 sp4.
Caution:
I havent upgrade the reiserfs(as suggested), so I take no responsibility ;(

Re: Resizing ReiserFS on SUSE Ent 9
Having in main that we have random writes on mounted files structure it is better to unmount FS before resize.
What was output when you try to resize ?

Re: Resizing ReiserFS on SUSE Ent 9
Try the parted command and see what you can do with its resize operation.

Re: Resizing ReiserFS on SUSE Ent 9
Parted has a resize option:
http://www.gnu.org/software/parted/manual/html_mono/parted.html#SEC25
But I personally prefer the delete/create path, is faster (you don't have to calculate start and end).
Also, next time you can create the filesystem just on top of the LUN, without partitions.
Regards,

Re: Resizing ReiserFS on SUSE Ent 9
Below is the output of "parted /dev/sda1" :
odsprismaserver:~ # parted /dev/sda1

Using /dev/sda1
(parted) print
Disk geometry for /dev/sda1: 0.000-1023949.969 megabytes
Disk label type: loop
Minor Start End Filesystem Flags
1 0.000 1023949.969 reiserfs
(parted)
When using the resize option, how do I know what the end value is? Do I have to umount the filesystem prior to resizing? Sorry if these questions seem elementary as I am not familiar with this process.
Thanks.
