FSADM(8) System Manager's Manual FSADM(8)
fsadm — utility to resize or check filesystem on a device
fsadm [options] check device
fsadm [options] resize device [new_size]
The fsadm utility checks or resizes the filesystem on a device
(which can also be a dm-crypt encrypted device). It tries to use
the same API for ext2, ext3, ext4, ReiserFS and XFS filesystems.
-e|--ext-offline
Unmount ext2/ext3/ext4 filesystem before doing resize.
-f|--force
Bypass some sanity checks.
-h|--help
Display the help text.
-l|--lvresize
Also resize the given lvm2 logical volume. More volume man‐
agement functionality is provided with complementary
lvresize(8) and the option -r|--resizefs.
-n|--dry-run
Print commands without running them.
-v|--verbose
Be more verbose.
-y|--yes
Answer "yes" at any prompts.
-c|--cryptresize
Resize dm-crypt mapping together with filesystem detected
on the device. The dm-crypt device must be recognizable by
cryptsetup(8).
new_size[B|K|M|G|T|P|E]
Absolute number of filesystem blocks to be in the filesys‐
tem, or an absolute size using a suffix (in powers of
1024). If new_size is not supplied, the whole device is
used.
On successful completion, the status code is 0. A status code of
2 indicates the operation was interrupted by the user. A status
code of 3 indicates the requested check operation could not be
performed because the filesystem is mounted and does not support
an online fsck(8). A status code of 1 is used for other failures.
Resize the filesystem on logical volume /dev/vg/test to 1000 MiB.
If /dev/vg/test contains ext2/ext3/ext4 filesystem it will be un‐
mounted prior to the resize. All [y/n] questions will be answered
'y'.
fsadm -e -y resize /dev/vg/test 1000M
TMPDIR The temporary directory name for mount points. Defaults to
"/tmp".
DM_DEV_DIR
The device directory name. Defaults to "/dev" and must be
an absolute path.
