       The way I'm working with EBS volumes on ec2 where I want it to format the EBS device as ext3 *only* if it is not already formatted and then ensure it is properly mounted, I also want to grow the filesystem to fill the space in case i booted from a snapshot with a larger volume size.

Thanks Ezra that gave me another tool I didn't know about, e2label.

So I've got most of a filesystem resource/provider working.  It can create linux/raid/lvm partitions with parted, and then add ext3/xfs filesystems to linux partitions if specified.

Awesome! Have you opened up a ticket for this improvement? Providing the specs are sufficient, I'm happy to include this is 0.7.2 =D

I'll open a ticket for this and the raid resource, I *should* be able to get them mostly finished this weekend.  I have specs for the resources, need to get some for the providers.
