Question #: 104

Resize the logical volume vo and its filesystem to 290 MB. Make sure that the filesystem contents remain intact.

Note: Partitions are seldom exactly the same size requested, so a size within the range of 260 MB to 320 MiB is acceptable.

AExplanation:
df -hT
lvextend -L +100M /dev/vg0/vo
lvscan
xfs_growfs /home/ // home is LVM mounted directory
Note: This step is only need to do in our practice environment, you do not need to do in the real exam
resize2fs /dev/vg0/vo // Use this comand to update in the real exam df -hT
OR
e2fsck -f/dev/vg0/vo
umount /home
resize2fs /dev/vg0/vo required partition capacity such as 100M lvreduce -l 100M /dev/vg0/vo mount /dev/vg0/vo /home
df --Ht

I bet the exam writer had a good laugh coming up with this one. 'Resize the volume, but don't mess up the filesystem!' Classic.

Don't forget to use resize2fs or e2fsck to update the partition capacity. It's important for the exam.

Wait, did they just tell us to run a command in a practice environment but not the real exam? I smell a trick question!
