THis is not my problem the > disk size is correct. I just can't change the partition table. Reading between the lines in that post the user added a new partition on the newly-allocated region of disk (this is fine - it's only in-use partitions that are a problem) and then extended the VG onto the new partition. It's an OK workaround if you have no option but I normally prefer to arrange some downtime and enlarge the existing partition rather than end up with multiple PVs on the same disk (the tools work fine I just feel it looks messy).
