GOOD DAY!,

I just want to know is there any way to expand a RAID5 partition without
losing my data? I'm using Adaptec 2120s SCSI Raid controller, Redhat 7.3
O/S, Kernel 2.4.18-18.7.xsmp. My problem is I started my raid5 with 3 SCSI
Disk and 1 Hot Spare. Now I need to add 1 SCSI disk to Raid5, I Already
add the SCSI disk using hardware Raid5. Before its Partion size is 68G.
then after rebuilding it become 102G. But in my problem is when I check my
partition in Redhat it is still 68G. How can I expand my partion in Raid5
to expand the capacity? Is there packages needed to repartion my Hardisk?
or is their any particular command do i need to run?
Thanks....
