[Linux-cluster] gfs2_grow - Error writing new rindex entries; aborted.

[Marco Huang]

Problem resolved by removing some large files before do gfs2_grow, as it requires some free space to process "grow".

There was no error when I did test run. So just wondering if there is a limitation of gfs2_grow which only can grow gfs2 filesystem upto 20T ? Is there anyone had same experience?
