Hello,
I used raidreconf to expand a RAID 5 array with three disks (no spares) to one
with four disks (no spares). The tool seemed to work fine, a check with
e2fsck -f /dev/md0
showed no errors. However, a
df .
in the directory of the array still shows the old size. Did I miss anything
obvious and how do I expand the filesystem to the whole array?
Thanks in advance,
Jonas Nickel

You need to use a e2fs resize program in addition to the raid reconf
program. The latter only changed the size of the device (i.e.
/dev/md0), and the former will change the size of the filesystem -on-
the device to fill the new size.

Thanks, that did the job.
