I’ve created a image from my partition with the e2image tool like this:
e2image -rap /dev/sdb2 /backup/sdb2.e2image
The Partitions size is around 870GB, but it used only around 25GB. When I do a ls -laht to check it size, I get this:
-rw------- 1 root root 868G 31. Mär 10:36 sdb2.e2image
Then I check the size with du
25G /backup/sdb2.e2image
now I created a lvm:
LV VG Attr LSize Pool Origin Data% Meta% Move Log Cpy%Sync Convert
arch_root vg_arch -wi-a----- 30.00g
Now i want to restore my old partition backup, to this lv, so I do:
e2image -rap /backup/sdb2.e2image /dev/mapper/vg_arch_root
But i always get an error during the restoring process:
e2image no space left
What i'm doing wrong?
