Abstract
A technique for managing file system expansions includes receiving a request to perform a file system expansion, the request specifying or implying an increase in size of a file system to a new target size. The request is received while a previous file system expansion is already in progress. The technique includes merging the previous file system expansion into the file system expansion specified by the request, to increase the size of the file system to the new target size.
