Instead it should say "Expand the PV on /dev/<dev name> AFTER englarging the block device. If the block device is a partition then you will need to enlarge the partition utilizing a tool for managing partitions like fdisk." If the device in LVM is just a SAN backed LU then you really don't need partitions on it at all. This would simplify your setup in the future if you just exposed the LU to the server and then just simply pvcreate the entire disk next time. Then when you increase the size of the LU on the SAN you can validate its size using blockdev --getsize64 /dev/sda both before and after the change. At that point a simple pvresize will pick up the new size and move forward. Hope that sheds some light. -- Zac Slade krakrjak@volumehost.net ICQ:1415282 YM:krakrjak AIM:ttyp99 _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
