In the past I have done clones of the smaller disk to larger, and then just created new partition for the extra space. A bit level copy will also set the uuid the same as the original disk. So, look at your current boot config file, and see if it has uuid options. > > _______________________________________________ > 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/ +----------------------------------------------------------+ Michael D.
