Re: [Xen-API] XCP online resize vdi

[Marco Sinhoreli <msinhore@xxxxxxxxx>]

As aÂsuggestion, a good way is create yours guests partitions in LVM, create and plug a new vbd and use lvm tools like pvcreate, vgextend, etc to add the disk, extend the vg and reize the lv and after use resize2fs to resize the filesystem. I know it can't help you now but is a good practice for news guests.

Hi,
how can I increase VDI space online?

Do you mean that the VM is online while you do VDI size increase ?
You can increase the VDI size if the VM is OFFLINE or VDI is not attached to any VM but while VM is online, resize is not yet possible.

I tried:
[root@usyqaxc01 ~]# xe vdi-resize disk-size=2147493648
uuid=9575d076-97a5-48ab-b1e0-d890053ee8ef > The SR backend does not support the operation (check the SR's allowed
operations)
sr: fa93343e-7be0-73da-c019-310d2edbb3da (iscsi - sdm)


My SR type is: lvmoiscsi
XCP 1.6

Linux distribution in the vm is debian. I have installed
xe-guest-utilities on the vm.

[root@usyqaxc01 ~]# xe vdi-param-list
uuid=9575d076-97a5-48ab-b1e0-d890053ee8ef | grep allowed operations


   allowed-operations (SRO): clone; snapshot

[root@usyqaxc01 ~]# xe sr-param-list
uuid=fa93343e-7be0-73da-c019-310d2edbb3da|grep allowed-operations
   allowed-operations (SRO): VDI.create; VDI.snapshot; PBD.create;
PBD.destroy; plug; update; VDI.destroy; scan; VDI.clone; VDI.resize; unplug
