I believe you will do the following: “pvresive /dev/sdb” That will make the volume group now be
600GB. Then use “lvextend” to enlarge
the logical volumes, and whatever the proper tool is to extend the EXT3
filesystem. Best to have the logical volumes &
volume group offline (“vgchange –a n”) before starting
resizing. Just my $0.02. From:

all. I
have an issue, that I am not sure how to address. How
can I resize the physical volume if I change the geometry of the disk
(non-destructive resize of RAID volume at the hardware level) I
can see that the OS has picked up the new size of the disk and I would like to
resize the existing pv. I don't know how. I
started with a hardware raid 5 (400GB), linux automatically recognizes disk as
/dev/sdb a
simplistic representation of the setup is as follows pvcreate
/dev/sdb I
have added a disk and expand the array to 600GB I can still see every thing but
I don't know how to extend the PV. filesystems
OK linux
sees /dev/sdb as 600GB William T. Musil
