I have a 10GB ext3 file system on a logical volume. I want to grow it to 20GB so I did an lvextend and grew the LV to 20GB. The file system itself is still only 10GB as shown via a "df".

resize2fs requires the file system to be unmounted. Is there a way to grow an ext3 file system while it's mounted?
