Hi, |

I've got a 3-disk 250GB RAID-1 that I use for short term, on the |
3 |
machine backups. It's normally not mounted unless I'm doing a quick |
4 |
save. Unfortunately it's a bit too small these days so I'm therefore |
5 |
going to convert it to a 3-disk RAID-5 which will double it's size. |

I'm pretty sure I've got the command set right to do the RAID-1 to |
8 |
RAID-5 conversion, but once it's done I believe the file system itself |
9 |
will still be 250GB so I'll need to resize the file system. In the |
10 |
past I've done this with gparted, which seems to work fine, but this |
11 |
time I was considering doing it at the command line. Does anyone know |
12 |
of a good web site that goes through how to do that? I've browsed |
13 |
around and found different pages that talk about it but my reading |
14 |
looks like they all have minor differences which leaves me a bit |
15 |
worried. |

Note that the status of the backup is currently good but if I |
18 |
happen to lose the data on that partition it won't likely be a big |
19 |
problem. I'm just trying to get to the end of the process without |
20 |
losing it if possible. |
