Subject: partx does not seem able to combine showing with updating
Date: Sun, 11 Jan 2015 22:25:00 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1421011500.3996453.212533857.5E69F442@webmail.messagingengine.com> (raw)
# ./partx --update --pairs -n 2 -o SIZE /dev/sda
SIZE="14.9G"
# ./partx --pairs --update -n 2 -o SIZE /dev/sda
# ./partx --verbose --update --pairs -n 2 -o SIZE /dev/sda
partition: none, disk: /dev/sda, lower: 2, upper: 2
/dev/sda: partition table type 'dos' detected
SIZE="14.9G"
# ./partx --verbose --pairs --update -n 2 -o SIZE /dev/sda
partition: none, disk: /dev/sda, lower: 2, upper: 2
/dev/sda: partition table type 'dos' detected
/dev/sda: partition #2 added
In my opinion the output should be the same in both cases,
either both updating and showing the partition, or saying
that the two options cannot be combined.
