IT WILL DESTROY YOUR FILESYSTEM! I did that just a few days ago. - I've never had the need to resize an ext3 fs before. You need to remove the ext3 journal first. Then resize. And after that add the journal again. Remove: tune2fs -O ^has_journal /dev/drbd0 Add: tune2fs -j /dev/drbd0 After my experience I looked at http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_resizing_ext3_partitions - seems fairly complete. > ... but as the data on the disk is rather important for our company, > I would appreciate some > confirmation that I'm not going to destroy anything.
