Hi,
I recently added a new disk ( secondary 750G) and added it into a VG and
then increased the size of the LV.
[root at server ~]# pvdisplay | egrep 'PV Name|PV Size|VG Name'
PV Name /dev/sda2
VG Name VolGroup00
PV Size 698.54 GB / not usable 4.40 MB
PV Name /dev/sdb1
VG Name VolGroup00
PV Size 698.64 GB / not usable 10.34 MB
[root at server ~]# lvdisplay | egrep 'LV Name|LV Size|VG Name'
LV Name /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
VG Name VolGroup00
LV Size 1.32 TB
LV Name /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01
VG Name VolGroup00
LV Size 1.94 GB
[root at server ~]#
======================
Can you please advise of the following q:
1) Do we need to change anything in /etc/fstab or the second disk will be
automatically mounted on reboot?
current fstab is
###############
[root at server ~]# cat /etc/fstab
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap swap defaults 0 0
[root at server ~]#
2) For 1.3 TB , fsck is going to take a long time
Is it good idea disable fsck completely on reboot and or do scheduled
manual fsck. Due to the nature of data , even manual fsck is not preffered
though, but with tight budget, other things are not possible
