[Linux-cluster] Re: cannot add journal to gfs

[vu pham]

Oh, just ignore this stupid question. I didn't read the man page 
carefully. This sentence from the man page solves the problem:

"gfs_jadd will not use space that has been formatted for filesystem data 
even if that space has  never been populated with files."

I extended the lvm and then grew the gfs. I should not grow it so that I 
have space for journals.

Sorry to post questions before checking the problem carefully.
