Additional comments:
ReiserFS 3 can be enlarged while mounted, but shrunk only when unmounted.
ReiserFS 4 can not yet be resized at all.
EXT2/3 can be enlarged online with a kernel patch and utils from
http://ext2resize.sourceforge.net/
XFS must be mounted while enlarging but can AFAIK not be shrunk, even
off-line.
JFS must be mounted while enlarging but can not be shrunk, same as XFS.
Some more info is in the HOW-TO:
