Hello Linux LVM list, I apologize if my question has been already answered.The search engines didn't answer to an issue I'm dealing with... My actual Hard Drives configuration is the following (FS is ext3 for both ones - I'm running Red Hat 9): Disk /dev/hda: 6448 MB, 6448619520 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 784 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux /dev/hda2 14 77 514080 8e Linux LVM /dev/hda3 78 784 5678977+ 8e Linux LVM for my first disk, where I've also installed LILO, and Disk /dev/hdb: 40.0 GB, 40020664320 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 4865 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hdb1 1 2550 20482843+ 8e Linux LVM /dev/hdb2 2551 3700 9237375 8e Linux LVM /dev/hdb3 * 3701 4865 9357862+ 39 Plan 9 for the second one. I finally decided to upgrade my old 6.5G HD to a new 120G HD; is the procedure described in http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/removeadisk.html a safe way to migrate all my data from the former to the 120G? I mean, my case is slightly different from the one described because of /boot partition and LILO in the MBR... I've found that some programs would easily upgrade HDs. Does anyone know how they work with LVM and how safe would be the upgrade with those kind of tools? Thanks in advance for your help and apologize if this question does not fit into this mailing list.
