Hello,
I would like to reduce the size of a lvm2 partition (ext4) without losing
data. I am confuse by resizef2s and lvresize.
Could you tell me the exact way of doing.
Thank.
I recommend the system-config-lvm tool. It's a really handy LVM GUI
tool. It does the "resizef2s" and "lvresize" for you. It does lots
of
other stuff, too!
If you don't use that tool, remember to shrink the file system before
reducing the lv. Ask me how I know that. LOL
