The field you need to edit to change the size is pe_count according to: pe_start + pe_count * extent_size <= dev_size i.e. pe_count <= (dev_size - pe_start) / extent_size You can find out the current device size with: pvs -o +dev_size --units s [The units used in the file are sectors of 512 bytes] Only change pe_count for the PV you're resizing and nothing else!
