--- Comment #2 from Theodore Tso (tytso@....edu) ---
By the way, e2fsprogs 1.42.9 has a huge number of resize2fs bugs when doing
off-line resizes.  I don't know how many of them Red Hat may or may not have
backported into that ancient version of e2fsprogs, but if you insist on using
Red Hat's e2fsprogs, I'd strongly recommend that you stick with on-line resizes
(that is, with the file system mounted). 

The 3.10 kernel also has an untold number of bugs that have since fixed
upstream; again, I can't speak to how many of them have been backported to Red
Hat's RHEL kernel.

So if you're going to use RHEL 7 software, I strongly suggest you get Red Hat
support.
