Hi,
I'm trying to add a new disk to a file server (a non-worm) and
I'm wondering is it possible to do it without
having to restore the file system.
Would be possible to reconfigure the file system
using a concatenation of the old and the new
disks and then rebuild the free list? Has anyone
try this before?
The only problem I see is that the file system size is in the
superblock and it's used to rebuild the free list, so I could
add a 'check size' command which recalculate the
size of the file system based on the config information.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
