--- Comment #7 from Maciej Pilichowski
Why do you think the system needs to copy 2TB of data when resizing from 2.5TB to 5TB? Or did you do this manually while the resize was running?
The latter (2TB is my guess, I had 2 tasks running with copying a lot of data). Please note this is HDD, not SDD, so moving heads is costly operation.
I can add a popup that advises the user that resize can be sped up if he umounts the fs.
I will strongly suggest _confirmation_dialog, instead of any passive popup, stating something that: " Your mounted partition supports resizing FS on-fly, however it is safer and faster, to unmount it first. Do you want to continue with resizing. [cancel] [resize] " Note, user does not have to quit, all it takes is to switch, unmount, and get back clicking "resize".
I will not automatically umount in YaST2 resize code
Yes, sure. With _confirmation_ box, this is enough, user has to click Yes or No, to continue. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
