From what I've read (but don't remember where exactly it was), IBM is
planning to make the sources for the OS/2 file system available for the
public and is porting it to Linux. Unfortunately, I don't know what is
included in this code and how much from JFS (the AIX Journaled File
System) is inside of it.
I found it to be a totally new experience to enlarge partitions or change
volume groups and more more or less on the fly on a running machine :-)
(You can even plug-in another SCSI disk, add and configure it and -
use it, without reboot. That Logical Volume Manager _is_ nice!)
From what I heard, such functionality is currently in development for
Linux - anybody who can tell more?
Regards,
Martin
