I am puzzled about the function of lvextend. i know it's used to extend a logical volume, but in fact,i still need to use e2fsadm to increase the file system size to match. and e2fsadm can extend a logical volume too. so if i only use e2fsadm i can extend a logical volume,it's no useful to use lvextend. Is it right? TIA for your help and sorry for my poor English.
