Hello,
I have an openmediavault server, the version is:
Linux omv 3.16.0-0.bpo.4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.39-1+deb8u1~bpo70+1 (2017-02-24) x86_64 GNU/Linux
The storage setup are 8 disks of 7,3 TB. Initially i created a RAID 6 with 7 disks and then a FS on ext4 with a total space of 36 TB.
I added then a new 7,3 TB disk to the raid which recognizes correctly, but when i try to expand the FS i get the following error:
Error #6000:exception 'OMVException' with message 'Failed to grow the filesystem '/dev/md0': resize2fs 1.42.5 (29-Jul-2012)resize2fs: New size too large to be expressed in 32 bits' in /usr/share/openmediavault/engined/rpc/filesystemmgmt.inc:703Stack trace:#0 [internal function]: OMVRpcServiceFileSystemMgmt->resize(Array, Array)#1 /usr/share/php/openmediavault/rpcservice.inc(125): call_user_func_array(Array, Array)#2 /usr/share/php/openmediavault/rpc.inc(79): OMVRpcServiceAbstract->callMethod('resize', Array, Array)#3 /usr/sbin/omv-engined(500): OMVRpc::exec('FileSystemMgmt', 'resize', Array, Array, 1)
The flag of 64 bit mentioned on another posts is activated.
I had readed another posts about the 16 Tb problem with the 32 post limit but
Then, how could i create a 36 TB filesystem with the omw interface when the limit is 16TB?. The problem only comes when i try to resize it?
My questions:
Is there any sollution or hotfix to resize this filesystem?
What happens if i try to create a new FS with more than 36 TB from scratch.
Thanks.
