That brings the question, how to shrink the VG containing home since it apparently needs to be unmount?

*sigh* I can't help myself and point out how much easier this is on btrfs. 'Btrfs dev remove' and it moves your data to remaining devices, shrinks the fs, and removes the requested device, all online, one command, fast, safe. But this is off topic and doesn't help.

You're kinda stuck. You'll have to boot off live media and install blivet-gui to see if it supports all of this. Or if you'll have to do it by command line. 

vgmerge
e2resizefs
lvresize
pvmove -n  ## specify the home LV
vgreduce


Where are all the LVM advocates when you need them? Maybe Easter stuff.

Seriously make a backup on something other than these two drives in the meantime in case it all blows up.
