Hi Ted,

     I noticed that you send out the patch enabling resizing on
filesystems with meta_bg and 64bits, so I send out the corresponding
patch on e2fsprogs.  Unfortunately, there is still a bug in e2fsprogs
as my last email says.

The following two patches were sufficient for me to resize a test file
system from 14 TB to 18 TB.  We still need to handle automatic
enabling of the meta_bg flag in resize2fs, but this should be
sufficient for more adventurous folks to test the online resize
patches.  (Note that I also posted a v2 version of patch 5/5 which
fixed a number of 64-bit overflow bugs that I found in my testing.)

Hi Ted,

is offline resizeing possible with this patch without online resize 
kernel patches (i use 3.2.0) with this features?

Filesystem features:      has_journal ext_attr dir_index filetype 
needs_recovery meta_bg extent 64bit flex_bg sparse_super large_file 
huge_file uninit_bg dir_nlink extra_isize

I had no luck offline resizing my 24TB fs with e2fstools version 1.42 
and 1.42.5.

thx for your time.
