Automatically expand partiton mounted /
1. write go code
package main
import (
"os"
"os/exec"
"strings"
)
func main() {
if os.Geteuid() != 0 {
// fmt.Println("This script must be run as root")
os.Exit(1)
}
// Identify the device that / is mounted on
out, err := exec.Command("df", "/").Output()
if err != nil {
// fmt.Println("Error running df command:", err)
os.Exit(1)
}
// Parse the output to get the device
lines := strings.Split(string(out), "\n")
if len(lines) < 2 {
// fmt.Println("Unexpected output from df command")
os.Exit(1)
}
fields := strings.Fields(lines[1])
if len(fields) < 1 {
// fmt.Println("Unexpected output from df command")
os.Exit(1)
}
device := fields[0]
// fmt.Println("Device:", device)
// Extract the base device and partition number
var baseDevice, partNum string
if strings.HasPrefix(device, "/dev/mapper/") {
baseDevice = strings.TrimSuffix(device, "1")
partNum = "1"
} else {
baseDevice = strings.TrimRightFunc(device, func(r rune) bool {
return r >= '0' && r <= '9'
})
partNum = strings.TrimPrefix(device, baseDevice)
}
// Grow the partition
if err := exec.Command("growpart", baseDevice, partNum).Run(); err != nil {
// fmt.Println("Error running growpart command:", err)
os.Exit(1)
}
// Resize the filesystem
if err := exec.Command("resize2fs", device).Run(); err != nil {
// fmt.Println("Error running resize2fs command:", err)
os.Exit(1)
}
}
2. build
go mod init expand_disk
go mod tidy
GOOS=linux GOARCH=amd64 go build .
3. write system service expand_disk.service
[Unit]
Description=Expand disk partition mounted on /
After=initrd-usr-fs.target
[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/expand_disk
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
4. enable service
- Install to system
sudo cp expand_disk.service /usr/lib/system/systemd/
- Enable system
sudo systemctl enable expand_disk
