I was talking about the command to change the superuser reserves. I know how to make LVM bigger but wanted to make sure this can be run even when there is data on there. Basically, can I run: tune2fs -m 1 /dev/data/data1 Which is where the ext4 file system is on the LVM. After I run that then I can expand LVM from there, I hope it works that easy. > Wonko > > Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ...
