After adding a hard disk online in centos under Linux system, it does not restart. Online expansion of the linux system directory does not restart the system.

Centos7 adds a hard disk online without restarting the system

CentOS 7 can add new disks online without restarting. The existing environment is basically offline servers and online virtual machines. Almost all of them support hot swapping and hot expansion, so it is particularly important to add new disks online, so that current services can be interrupted without interrupting. Or the process can also add a hard disk to it.

1. Add a hard drive:
Add a hard disk to the virtual machine while it is online.
Add 2 20G scsi disks here







The above are the complete fool-proof steps for adding a virtual machine disk.

Click OK after adding the two disks.

2. Enter the terminal to refresh

Switch back to the terminal to see if there are any newly added disks
From this it can be seen that there is no such thing.

[root@compute ~]# lsblk
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda 8:0 0 160G 0 disk
├─sda1 8:1 0 1G 0 part /boot
└─sda2 8:2 0 158.9G 0 part
  ├─centos-root 253:0 0 103G 0 lvm /
  ├─centos-swap 253:1 0 5.9G 0 lvm [SWAP]
  └─centos-home 253:2 0 50G 0 lvm /home
sr0 11:0 1 4.2G 0 rom
[root@compute ~]#

Now refresh it using the following command:

ls /sys/class/scsi_host/
echo '- - -' >/sys/class/scsi_host/host0/scan
echo '- - -' >/sys/class/scsi_host/host1/scan
echo '- - -' >/sys/class/scsi_host/host2/scan

Refresh and check the disk again to find that the disk has been refreshed.

[root@localhost ~]# lsblk
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda 8:0 0 150G 0 disk
├─sda1 8:1 0 1G 0 part /boot
└─sda2 8:2 0 149G 0 part
  ├─centos-root 253:0 0 50G 0 lvm /
  ├─centos-swap 253:1 0 7.9G 0 lvm [SWAP]
  └─centos-home 253:2 0 91.1G 0 lvm /home
sdb 8:16 0 60G 0 disk
sr0 11:0 1 4.2G 0 rom

You will find that the added refresh is successful.

Note: The disk size in the picture and the disk size displayed by the command are inconsistent, but the operation does not affect

Next, expand the root directory of the added disk.

[root@localhost ~]# fdisk /dev/sdb
