Perfect, thank you Paul! That command wasn't around in the version I initially tested, SLES9sp2: lvm2-2.00.33-1.3. I see that it is in RHEL4u3: lvm2-2.02.01-1.3.RHEL4. Does anyone know which version of LVM it was introduced in?

It looks like like LVM2's pvresize command should be able to do this. -- Paul Collins Melbourne, Australia Dag vijandelijk luchtschip de huismeester is dood - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
