I switched to using the recently announced Exalogic X3-2 Echo (2.0.6.0.0) guest template for packaging the application software VM. However, on trying to increase the disk space as in the Navstar (2.0.4.0.0) template version using the modifyjeos tool (version 1.1.0-17), I ran into the the following error:
# modifyjeos -f System.img -P App.img 6144 /u01 -S 2048 -n EL_ECHO_MYAPP_2.0_VM_TEMPLATE
Starting VM image reconfiguration...
ERROR: Unknow filesystem.
No detailed messages other than the single line below were logged to /var/log/modifyjeos.log
...modifyjeos version 1.1.0-17 starting
I later learnt that modifyjeos does not support LVM and this is one of the new feature in Exalogic ECHO (2.0.6.0.0) release. Using Logical Volume Manager (LVM) is recommended to increase/create the virtual disk space. Here are the steps followed to prepare the Exalogic Echo guest VM instance for creating a logical partition to host the application software.
Refer the official Exalogic X3-2 Elastic Cloud Administrator's Guide "Managing LVM Partitions on Guest vServers" for more details on this subject
