To be safe unmount the filesystem you want to grow. Then you'll use the resize2fs command. From what you've provided so far, and assuming you want to use all the available space on the LV, the command line will probably look something like: resize2fs -p /dev/VGforMyth/video I'd recommending reading the man page for resize2fs before proceeding.

Thanks for the reply. The other two disks are file system ext3. Is it possible to change this 3rd disk to be ext3 as well from the current state i'm in? and then resize to fill?
