I have a /tmp volume that I'd like to increase. I've been having a look
at the LVM HOWTO [1] and various other pages online and think I've got
it figured out. Those being famous last words, I thought I'd check here
first.
# parted /dev/sda print
Model: ATA Maxtor 6Y080L0 (scsi)
Disk /dev/sda: 82.0GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: msdos
Number Start End Size Type File system Flags
1 32.3kB 107MB 107MB primary ext3 boot
2 107MB 82.0GB 81.8GB primary lvm
# df -h

961M 18M 894M 2% /tmp
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol06
3.8G 194M 3.4G 6% /opt
I'd like to reduce /var first to free up some space, then give that to
/tmp using:
# umount /var
# e2fsck -f /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol04
# resize2fs /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol04 13G
# lvreduce -L-6G /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol04
# mount /var
# umount /tmp
# e2fsck -f /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol03
# lvextend -L+6G /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol03
# resize2fs /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol03
# mount /tmp
Does that ring any alarm bells?
