Ok, so the verifiers have been there for a while. Next question
-when was the last time you tried to grow the filesystem?

I happy to hear someone say that ;)

As it is, can you do an XFS event trace trace when you attempt to
grow the filesystem and send the output of the trace to me? See
here:

http://xfs.org/index.php/XFS_FAQ#Q:_What_information_should_I_include_when_reporting_a_problem.3F

for where to get trace-cmd and how to run it to gather the event
trace.

Cheers,

Dave.
