NAME

       cryptsetup-resize - resize an active mapping

SYNOPSIS

       cryptsetup resize [<options>] <name>

DESCRIPTION

       Resizes an active mapping <name>.

       If --size (in 512-bytes sectors) or --device-size are not specified, the size is computed
       from the underlying device. For LUKS it is the size of the underlying device without the
       area reserved for LUKS header (see data payload offset in luksDump command). For plain
       crypt device, the whole device size is used.

       Note that this does not change the raw device geometry, it just changes how many sectors
       of the raw device are represented in the mapped device.

       If cryptsetup detected volume key for active device loaded in kernel keyring service,
       resize action would first try to retrieve the key using a token. Only if it failed, it’d
       ask for a passphrase to unlock a keyslot (LUKS) or to derive a volume key again (plain
       mode). The kernel keyring is used by default for LUKS2 devices.

       <options> can be [--size, --device-size, --token-id, --token-only, --token-type,
       --key-slot, --key-file, --keyfile-size, --keyfile-offset, --timeout,
       --disable-external-tokens, --disable-locks, --disable-keyring, --verify-passphrase,
       --timeout, --external-tokens-path].

OPTIONS

       --verify-passphrase, -y
           When interactively asking for a passphrase, ask for it twice and complain if both
           inputs do not match. Ignored on input from file or stdin.

       --key-file, -d name
           Read the passphrase from file.

           If the name given is "-", then the passphrase will be read from stdin. In this case,
           reading will not stop at newline characters.

           See section NOTES ON PASSPHRASE PROCESSING in cryptsetup(8) for more information.

       --keyfile-offset value
           Skip value bytes at the beginning of the key file.

       --keyfile-size, -l value
           Read a maximum of value bytes from the key file. The default is to read the whole file
           up to the compiled-in maximum that can be queried with --help. Supplying more data
           than the compiled-in maximum aborts the operation.

           This option is useful to cut trailing newlines, for example. If --keyfile-offset is
           also given, the size count starts after the offset.

       --key-slot, -S <0-N>
           For LUKS operations that add key material, this option allows you to specify which key
           slot is selected for the new key.

           The maximum number of key slots depends on the LUKS version. LUKS1 can have up to 8
           key slots. LUKS2 can have up to 32 key slots based on key slot area size and key size,
           but a valid key slot ID can always be between 0 and 31 for LUKS2.

       --size, -b <number of 512 byte sectors>
           Set the size of the device in sectors of 512 bytes.

       --device-size size[units]
           Sets new size of the device. If unset real device size is used.

           If no unit suffix is specified, the size is in bytes.

           Unit suffix can be S for 512 byte sectors, K/M/G/T (or KiB,MiB,GiB,TiB) for units with
           1024 base or KB/MB/GB/TB for 1000 base (SI scale).

       --timeout, -t <number of seconds>
           The number of seconds to wait before timeout on passphrase input via terminal. It is
           relevant every time a passphrase is asked. It has no effect if used in conjunction
           with --key-file.

           This option is useful when the system should not stall if the user does not input a
           passphrase, e.g. during boot. The default is a value of 0 seconds, which means to wait
           forever.

       --header <device or file storing the LUKS header>
           Use a detached (separated) metadata device or file where the LUKS header is stored.
           This option allows one to store ciphertext and LUKS header on different devices.

           For commands that change the LUKS header (e.g. luksAddKey), specify the device or file
           with the LUKS header directly as the LUKS device.

       --disable-external-tokens
           Disable loading of plugins for external LUKS2 tokens.

       --disable-locks
           Disable lock protection for metadata on disk. This option is valid only for LUKS2 and
           ignored for other formats.

           WARNING: Do not use this option unless you run cryptsetup in a restricted environment
           where locking is impossible to perform (where /run directory cannot be used).

       --disable-keyring
           Do not load volume key in kernel keyring and store it directly in the dm-crypt target
           instead. This option is supported only for the LUKS2 type.

       --token-id
           Specify what token to use and allow token PIN prompt to take precedence over
           interactive keyslot passphrase prompt. If omitted, all available tokens (not protected
           by PIN) will be checked before proceeding further with passphrase prompt.

       --token-only
           Do not proceed further with action if token based keyslot unlock failed. Without the
           option, action asks for passphrase to proceed further.

           It allows LUKS2 tokens protected by PIN to take precedence over interactive keyslot
           passphrase prompt.

       --token-type type
           Restrict tokens eligible for operation to specific token type. Mostly useful when no
           --token-id is specified.

           It allows LUKS2 type tokens protected by PIN to take precedence over interactive
           keyslot passphrase prompt.

       --external-tokens-path absolute_path
           Override system directory path where cryptsetup searches for external token handlers
           (or token plugins). It must be absolute path (starting with '/' character).

       --batch-mode, -q
           Suppresses all confirmation questions. Use with care!

           If the --verify-passphrase option is not specified, this option also switches off the
           passphrase verification.

       --debug or --debug-json
           Run in debug mode with full diagnostic logs. Debug output lines are always prefixed by
           #.

           If --debug-json is used, additional LUKS2 JSON data structures are printed.

       --version, -V
           Show the program version.

       --usage
           Show short option help.

       --help, -?
           Show help text and default parameters.
