Fedora :: Cannot Extend LV For Home

Oct 15, 2010

I have a 100GB HD with FC13 installed, default layout with options suggested during installation. I recently purchased a SSD 120GB and move the data the old HD from it with dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb bs=1M. Since the SSD is 120 Gb, so I should have 20GB space not utilized.

After the moving,

# fdisk /dev/sda1
Disk /dev/sda: 128.0 GB, 128035676160 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 15566 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes

Apr 21, 2011

I know I have done this command on out Red Hat systems. But for some reason in CentOS its giving me problems. I am trying to add more space to / as its at 100% full. Not sure what filled up the 4G is assigned to it but I did load Virtualbox and a widowsxp system.

Red Hat :: Cannot Extend PV (LVM) After Resizing Partition

Dec 16, 2010

I know there are probably alot of threads about lvm however they aren't addressing my problem. I want to extend the PEs available in a VG. This VG already has LVs and those are active and mounted. From what I read from the manpages of pvresize this should be perfectly possible.
Code:
pvresize resizes PhysicalVolume which may already be in a volume group and have active logical volumes allocated on it.

I did the following steps and wonder if anyone has the same issue. THe machine where I am talking about is an ESX VM.
1. Resized the vmdk in ESX (+1G)
2. Let the kernel reread the device geometry: echo 1 > /sys/block/sdc/device/rescan
3. fdisk shows me the new size... so far so good
4. I resize the partition using fdisk (remove, recreate) and gave it the 8e type (lvm)
5. wrote config to disk
6. executed partprobe
7. pvresize /dev/sdc

Here it goes wrong! Pvresize says in the verbose output it sees the same size however at the end it says the pv has been resized. I have seen when I put volumes "offline" using vgchange -a n vg on a test machine, and then try pvresize it seems to work ok. This is against what is in the manual as it says pvresize should work on online mounted volumes.

Fedora :: Extend Volume Group Using LVM?

Mar 30, 2011

Currently, I am at 99% capacity with a 1TB hard drive (sda). I want to add an extra 2TB storage (sdc) by extending the current volume group using LVM.

[URL]

I can see that it is extended from the LVM GUI (System - Admin - LVM). However, when I download anything, the system says I am still at 99% capacity.

Code:

[root@localhost /]# fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 1000.2 GB, 1000203804160 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 121601 cylinders

General :: Networking - Extend Display Over Network On VNC?

Apr 30, 2011

What I need is a program that will extend a X-windows display over a network, similar to nvidia's TwinView (which I am already using on the main machine for its 2 current monitors).However, I cannot use Xdmx (as suggested by all the threads I found), as I would like it not to require me to manually start the x server and viewer, and have all the machines must be running a *nix OS, which won't work for me, as the secondary machine is running windows.I would also like it to hopefully use VNC to share the desktop, as I would be connecting to it from a windows machine over ethernet.By "extend" I mean one that would, say, for example, add another X display with a given resolution and position and serve that over VNC. I have yet to find any programs that will do this.

Programming :: Child Classes That Extend Each Type Of Pet

Jan 6, 2011

I am fairly new to c++. There must be a better way to do the following?:- Say I have a base class, Pet. I have several child classes that extend from this, like Dog, Cat, Fish etc.

I have the following function, that returns a pointer to a new Pet:-
Code: Pet* addPetToVet()
{ //Do some stuff
return new Pet();
} This will return a pointer an instance of a pet object.

Now, if I want to interpret this pet as a dog or cat I have to do this:-
Code: Dog* dogA = static_cast<Dog*>(addPetToVet());
Cat* catA = static_cast<Cat*>(addPetToVet()); Is there a way around this? Casting seems lame. I cant write a function for each type of pet.

Server :: Raid6 - How To Extend Volume Group

May 16, 2010

I'm running debian and used mdadm to setup up a raid 6 array with 4x1TB drives with roughly 1.86TB's available with lvm. Then I added 4x1TB drives to the array. So now I have an 8 drive raid 6 array with 5.+TB's available, the array sees all available space. The question is how do I extend the volume group so that it uses the whole raid and not just half of it. As of right now the volume group is only 1.86TB's.
