Hi All,

I try to resize a drbd device using drbd-0.7 and cant get it done.

As I must do a lot of repartitioning on both nodes, I cant grow online.
I therefore put both modes into standalone mode, detached node 2,
repartioned the device and grew the underlying raid-device and
reattached the drbd device - still as Standalone. The raid device shows
up with the new size, but as soon as I start the drbd device, I see my
ext3 with the old size. The beginning of the old and new device was not
changed, therefore I guess it finds some old meta...

Calling drbdadm resize hast no effect. Any ideas here?

Oliver
