I cannot unmount /home because it is busy. even after a reboot and not logging in.

Why can't you do it live in Cockpit?

I never had to unmount.

@jaredbusch that likely means that you have a shell session that is currently "cd'd" into the /home somewhere and/or some process that is running out of it.

Both /home and / are ext4.

It has to be some process then, because it gives this right after a reboot

[scottalanmiller]

Try this...

ps aux | grep /home

ps aux | grep /home

System is not logged in. Doing it from the cockpit terminal resulted in this

[Obsolesce]

1. Unount /home
   umount /home

2. Shrink the /home filesystem
   fsck -f /dev/mapper/fedora-home
resize2fs /dev/mapper/fedora-home 190G

3. Shrink the /home logical volume
   lvreduce -L -24G /dev/mapper/fedora-home

4. Resize the /home partition to the size of the LV
   resize2fs /dev/mapper/fedora-home

5. Extend the /root logical volume
   lvextend -L +24G /dev/mapper/fedora-root

6. Extend the /root filesystem
   fsck -f /dev/mapper/fedora-root
resize2fs /dev/mapper/fedora-root

7. Mount /home
   mount /home

[JaredBusch]

Ah, maybe this?

Does the -f switch help?

[JaredBusch]

Bingo...

Unmounted that and now it works.

Oh yeah, if you have a GUI, it uses your /home space.
