Hi,
I'm trying to resize a 15GB LVM root partition on a fedora20 server with
a fedora20 guest and I'm having a problem. Is this supported on fedora20?

I recall having a similar problem (maybe even exact same problem) all
the way back in fedora16 or fedora17, but hoped/thought it would be
fixed by now?

I thought this has been already fixed:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1016218

It looks like that only applies to RHEL6?

Can you track down whether there was a fedora20 update for this?

What are my alternatives for resizing a root partition on LVM?

I guess updating lvm2. Seems like you won't be able to use pure vgchange
and do thing by hand anyway.

Do you know where there is a HOWTO of some sort to do it using lvm from within the virtual machine? Is that even possible?

Thanks,
Alex
