Does your FS support online resizing?

Yeah. I mainly use btrfs; it supports online growing and shrinking.

Be super careful about partition sizes. […]

I know. I have done plenty of same device partition resizing. I know the pit falls, and for safety shrink the FS to below what the LV is going to be.

Have backups.

Thanks for the reminder. I’ve been meaning to set up snapshot backups for this machine using rsnapshot as an experiment. I mainly use Dirvish
