Bug#346511: ext3 online resizing doesn't work
Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.15-1
I can't get online resizing of ext3 to work. The kernel spits out
EXT3-fs: Unrecognized mount option "resize=1572864" or missing value
when I try to remount the filesystem, supplying the "resize" option.
Documentation/filesystems/ext3.txt says it should be there, and from
what I can understand of fs/ext3/super.c and its parse_options() the
"resize" option is supposed to be understood by the kernel. Am I doing
something wrong? I have created the file system using mkfs -E resize.
Resizing JFS (using the exact same procedure) works just fine.
