ovirt should not react in any way :) the size should be updated by queries that are sent to vdsm on domains status. If you want to be extra careful you can always put the export domain in maintenance before the extend :) On 03/13/2013 09:45 PM, Jonathan Horne wrote:

If you want to be extra careful you can always put the export domain in maintenance before the extend :) If the export domain come back to life, I think the domain meta data should be invalidated after the extend.

Dafna Ron: posix file system meta data.

If you want to be extra careful you can always put the export domain in maintenance before the extend :) If the export domain come back to life, I think the domain meta data should be invalidated after the extend. since its not iscsi type domain the extend done on the server side to extend the domain should not be a problem

iirc, the MD no longer cares about SD size. so for block storage it is a matter of refreshing the hosts. but in any case, since export is NFS, i don't remember any issues with extending it.

I think you should extend both the block device and the file system on the block device in the server side. To oVirt, it doesn't save the size in storage domain' meta-data and I believe the size is only stored in the engine server. The only issue is before the engine refresh its metadata in the next time, there is a window with the meta-data out of sync. Please let us know if it is successful. Jonathan Horne:
