I tried to extend my 96Mb VG "secured" with (default) extend size of 32M with 1*128Mb /dev/md/8. I recreated it with an extend size of 1Mb and with /dev/md/7 + /dev/md/8 PV. It worked. Since then I added some more PV to it without problem. I now trying to move my root partition on it. ----- Original Message ----- From: Koch, Steffen <steffen.koch@sphinx-electronics.de> To: <linux-lvm@sistina.com> Sent: Friday, December 05, 2003 4:11 PM Subject: RE: half my space lost > Hello again, > > > Thank you for this explanation which sounds very clear. > > > > One more question please.
