为什么我的ZFS池不使用Linux上的ZFS进行扩展？

Question

在内核2.6.32-431.11.2.el6.x86_64下，我有一个在linux上的ZFS zpool，其中有一个vdev。vdev是一个SAN设备。我扩展了SAN的大小，尽管autoexpand设置为on，即使在重新启动机器、导出/导入池并使用zpool online -e之后，我仍然无法使池扩展。我确信vdev会更大，因为fdisk显示它已经从215 GiB增加到了250 GiB。下面是我所做的事情的一个例子：

[root@timestandstill ~]# zpool list
NAME          SIZE  ALLOC   FREE    CAP  DEDUP  HEALTH  ALTROOT
dfbackup      214G   207G  7.49G    96%  1.00x  ONLINE  -

我怎样才能扩展这个zpool呢？

Answer 1

我在freebsd论坛上读到一篇文章，其中建议使用zpool online -e <pool> <vdev> (不需要先离线)

这最终是解决方案，但它要求首先禁用ZFS自动展开：

[root@timestandstill ~]# zpool list
NAME          SIZE  ALLOC   FREE    CAP  DEDUP  HEALTH  ALTROOT
dfbackup      214G   207G  7.49G    96%  1.00x  ONLINE  -
[root@timestandstill ~]# zpool get autoexpand
NAME         PROPERTY    VALUE   SOURCE
dfbackup     autoexpand  on      local
[root@timestandstill ~]# zpool set autoexpand=off dfbackup
[root@timestandstill ~]# zpool online -e dfbackup /dev/disk/by-id/virtio-sbs-XLPH83
[root@timestandstill ~]# zpool list
NAME          SIZE  ALLOC   FREE    CAP  DEDUP  HEALTH  ALTROOT
dfbackup      249G   207G  42.5G    82%  1.00x  ONLINE  -

在linux上使用ZFS (在内核中，而不是使用FUSE)，需要使用zpool set autoexpand=off，然后是zpool online -e，才能使zpool扩展

Answer 2

我在Ubuntu16.04上运行ZFS，经过多次尝试和错误之后，这就是在不重新启动的情况下扩展磁盘和池大小的方法。我的系统是托管在云中的利润drives，并使用libvirt (而不是SCSI)驱动器。

获取池和设备详细信息：

# zpool status -v
   ...
    NAME        STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
    pool        ONLINE       0     0     0
      vdb       ONLINE       0     0     0

# zpool list
NAME   SIZE  ALLOC   FREE  EXPANDSZ   FRAG    CAP  DEDUP  HEALTH  ALTROOT
pool  39.8G  27.1G  12.7G         -    49%    68%  1.00x  ONLINE  -

激活自动展开：

# zpool set autoexpand=on pool

现在登录到Profitbricks控制面板，并将磁盘大小从40 to增加到50 to。

通知系统磁盘大小的变化并扩展池：

# partprobe
Warning: Not all of the space available to /dev/vdb appears to be used,
you can fix the GPT to use all of the space (an extra 10485760 blocks) or 
continue with the current setting?

# zpool online -e pool vdb

# partprobe

# zpool list
NAME   SIZE  ALLOC   FREE  EXPANDSZ   FRAG    CAP  DEDUP  HEALTH  ALTROOT
pool  49.8G  27.1G  21.7G         -    40%    55%  1.00x  ONLINE  -

我不知道为什么，但有时需要运行partprobe和/或zpool online -e pool vdb两次才能使更改有效。
