This is filling up. The RAID controller lets me add more disk easily enough, but can I resize the UFS filesystem without restoring the whole thing from tape? From what little I know of filesystem structure this ought to be possible: just rewrite the superblocks. In fact it looks as if it could be hacked in as an option to newfs. Could it?
