Hi.
I added a disk to a hardware raid 5 array and now i want to expand the
LVM physical volume. There are now 4 sas 146GB disks in the server.
The virtual disk /dev/sdb from the raid controller has been resized
successfully with the server management software osma.
[root@srv1 ~]# fdisk -l /dev/sdb
Disk /dev/sdb: 438.4 GB, 438489317376 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 53309 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 * 1 35539 285466986 8e Linux LVM
When i run "pvresize /dev/sdb1" the output tells me it has been resized,
but actually the physical volume didn't expand to the partition size 438GB.
[root@srv1 ~]# pvresize /dev/sdb1
Physical volume "/dev/sdb1" changed
1 physical volume(s) resized / 0 physical volume(s) not resized
[root@srv1 ~]# pvdisplay /dev/sdb1
--- Physical volume ---
PV Name /dev/sdb1
VG Name VolGroup01
PV Size 272.24 GB / not usable 24.17 MB
Allocatable yes (but full)
PE Size (KByte) 32768
Total PE 8711
Free PE 0
Allocated PE 8711
PV UUID TCE2wI-U5kt-e8hd-d4gU-ug7Y-aEp9-k5QwG6
How can i resize the physical volume sdb1 to the partition size 438GB?
Thank you in advance,
Thomas
