.TH "FSADM" "8" "LVM TOOLS #VERSION#" "Red Hat, Inc" "\"" .SH "NAME" fsadm \- utility to resize or check filesystem on a device .SH SYNOPSIS .B fsadm .RI [ options ] .B check .I device .sp .B fsadm .RI [ options ] .B resize .I device .RI [ new_size [ BKMGTEP ]] .sp .SH DESCRIPTION .B fsadm utility checks or resizes the filesystem on a device. It tries to use the same API for .IR ext2 , ext3 , ext4 , ReiserFS and \fIXFS\fP filesystem. .SH OPTIONS .TP .BR \-h ", " \-\-help Display the help text. .TP .BR \-v ", " \-\-verbose Be more verbose. .TP .BR \-e ", " \-\-ext\-offline Unmount ext2/ext3/ext4 filesystem before doing resize. .TP .BR \-f ", " \-\-force Bypass some sanity checks. .TP .BR \-n ", " \-\-dry\-run Print commands without running them. .TP .BR \-y ", " \-\-yes Answer "yes" at any prompts. .TP .I new_size Absolute number of filesystem blocks to be in the filesystem, or an absolute size using a suffix (in powers of 1024). If new_size is not supplied, the whole device is used. .SH DIAGNOSTICS 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 .BR fsck (8). A status code of 1 is used for other failures. .SH EXAMPLES Resize the filesystem on logical volume /dev/vg/test to 1000 megabytes. If /dev/vg/test contains ext2/ext3/ext4 filesystem it will be unmounted prior the resize. All [y|n] questions will be answered 'y'. .sp .B fsadm \-e \-y resize /dev/vg/test 1000M .SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES .TP .B TMPDIR The temporary directory name for mount points. Defaults to "/tmp". .TP .B DM_DEV_DIR The device directory name. Defaults to "/dev" and must be an absolute path. .SH SEE ALSO .BR lvm (8), .BR lvresize (8), .BR lvm.conf (5), .BR fsck (8), .BR tune2fs (8), .BR resize2fs (8), .BR reiserfstune (8), .BR resize_reiserfs (8), .BR xfs_info (8), .BR xfs_growfs (8), .BR xfs_check (8)
