[Lustre-discuss] Resizing OSTs?

[Roy Dragseth]

We have replaced all our hardrives with ones twice the size (because of some 
problems with the drive type we had).

It would be nice to make use of the extra volume and I'm wondering if we can 
just take down the OST, extend the logical partition on the array, run 
resize2fs on the filesystem and be good to go?  Will the MDT just pick up the 
new OST size automatically?

We do not plan to resize the MDT as it still has less than 5% fill-degree.

Regards,
Roy.
