# Manual runbook: grow / from 279G to ~505G (VM 5111, ultix-streaming)
|
|
|
|
YOU run every command, one at a time, checking the output before the next.
|
|
Nothing here is automated, scheduled, or boot-triggered. Storage ops are the
|
|
only steps in this whole effort that no script touches.
|
|
|
|
## Layout change
|
|
```
|
|
before: sda1 root 279.2G | sda2 extended [ sda5 swap 8.8G ] | ~150G unallocated
|
|
after: sda1 root ~505G | sda2 swap ~13G (new, at the tail)
|
|
```
|
|
MBR stays MBR, ext4 grows online, VM stays up the whole time. You can safely
|
|
stop after any step; the system runs fine at any intermediate size. Takes
|
|
about 10 minutes end to end.
|
|
|
|
## Step 0 — preconditions
|
|
```
|
|
command -v growpart || sudo apt-get install -y cloud-guest-utils
|
|
df -h / /data1 /data2 # know your starting point
|
|
lsblk /dev/sda
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Step 1 — backups (30 seconds, do not skip)
|
|
```
|
|
sudo sfdisk --dump /dev/sda | sudo tee /root/sda.sfdisk.bak.$(date +%F)
|
|
sudo cp /etc/fstab /root/fstab.bak.$(date +%F)
|
|
```
|
|
Check: `head /root/sda.sfdisk.bak.*` lists sda1, sda2, sda5.
|
|
|
|
## Step 2 — grow the virtual disk at the host (hot, VM stays up)
|
|
```
|
|
ssh root@pfv-tsys5.knel.net 'qm config 5111 | grep scsi0' # eyeball the target
|
|
ssh root@pfv-tsys5.knel.net 'qm resize 5111 scsi0 +80G'
|
|
```
|
|
Check in guest: `lsblk /dev/sda` shows sda = 518G, sda1 still 279.2G.
|
|
|
|
## Step 3 — retire the old swap
|
|
```
|
|
free -h # swap "used" must be ~0
|
|
sudo swapoff /dev/sda5
|
|
OLDUUID=$(sudo blkid -s UUID -o value /dev/sda5); echo "OLDUUID=$OLDUUID"
|
|
cat /proc/swaps # check: empty
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Step 4 — remove the extended partition (the strip between root and free space)
|
|
```
|
|
sudo sfdisk --delete /dev/sda 2
|
|
sudo partprobe /dev/sda
|
|
lsblk /dev/sda
|
|
```
|
|
Check: only sda1 remains. If sda1 is missing: STOP, do not reboot, do not
|
|
write anything; restore the table:
|
|
`sudo sfdisk /dev/sda < /root/sda.sfdisk.bak.<date>`
|
|
|
|
## Step 5 — grow partition 1 into the free space
|
|
```
|
|
sudo growpart /dev/sda 1
|
|
# parted alternative: sudo parted /dev/sda resizepart 1 100%
|
|
lsblk /dev/sda # sda1 now ~505G
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Step 6 — grow the filesystem (online)
|
|
```
|
|
sudo resize2fs /dev/sda1
|
|
df -h / # ~500G available
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Step 7 — new swap at the tail
|
|
```
|
|
sudo parted -s /dev/sda mkpart primary linux-swap 505GB 100%
|
|
sudo partprobe /dev/sda
|
|
lsblk /dev/sda
|
|
NEWSWAP=$(lsblk -no NAME,TYPE /dev/sda | awk '$2=="part"{print $1}' | tail -1); echo "NEWSWAP=$NEWSWAP"
|
|
sudo mkswap /dev/$NEWSWAP
|
|
NEWUUID=$(sudo blkid -s UUID -o value /dev/$NEWSWAP); echo "NEWUUID=$NEWUUID"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Step 8 — swap fstab line, activate
|
|
```
|
|
sudo sed -i "s/^UUID=$OLDUUID/#UUID=$OLDUUID retired-sda5 $(date +%F)/" /etc/fstab
|
|
echo "UUID=$NEWUUID none swap sw 0 0" | sudo tee -a /etc/fstab
|
|
sudo swapon -a
|
|
cat /proc/swaps # new swap active
|
|
sudo fstrim -v / # optional: reclaim (discard is on now)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Rollback map
|
|
- Anytime before step 4: nothing changed except two backup files.
|
|
- After partition edits, before resize2fs: restore table from the sfdisk dump
|
|
(step 4 note); no data has moved, only the table.
|
|
- After resize2fs: growth is one-way by design; reverting size means restore
|
|
from backups, so this is the one step to do when calm. (It is also the
|
|
safest operation in the list: online ext4 grow is journaled.)
|
|
- fstab: backups in /root; only the swap line changes, and a bad swap line is
|
|
non-fatal at boot (root entry is untouched).
