Re: [issue1084] Can The HAMMER filesystem can extends volume without destory the original data?


From: Matthew Dillon <dillon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

:for example:
:I have a volume:
:    newfs_hammer -L Home /dev/ad0s1d
:    mount_hammer /dev/ad0s1d /home
:now I want to extends it:
:    newfs_hammer -L Home /dev/ad1s1d
:    mount_hammer /dev/ad0s1d /home
:The data in /home is kept and the volume capacity is extended.
:
:Can HAMMER do or will do this?

    Not in this first release.  The data structures are designed to
    make it fairly easy to do, though, and eventually it will
    be possible to add and remove volumes and expand and contract 
    partitions.
