Hi, I have one volume group and that is used as such: [root@jeff ~]# /usr/sbin/lvscan ACTIVE '/dev/VolGroup00/Root' [9.78 GB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/VolGroup00/Home' [231.31 GB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/VolGroup00/Swap' [320.00 MB] inherit I added a whole disk to VolGroup00 like so: [root@jeff ~]# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hde bs=512 count=1 1+0 records in 1+0 records out created the physical volume: [root@jeff ~]# /usr/sbin/pvcreate /dev/hde added it to the volume group: [root@jeff ~]# /usr/sbin/vgextend VolGroup00 /dev/hde added 100G from the 150G drive to Home: [root@jeff ~]# /usr/sbin/lvextend -L+100G /dev/VolGroup00/Home Extending logical volume Home to 331.31 GB Logical volume Home successfully resized At this point the docs suggest umounting the logical volume in order to resize the file system. So I decided I was going to reboot the computer and start it into single user mode. When doing that I'm greated with: lvm exited abnormally! Couldn't find device with uuid <uuid> Couldn't find all physical volumes for volume group VolGroup00 So it seems that it can't find the new physical volume that I just added. LVM is totally new to me, so any help telling me how to mount my filesystem in rescue mode would be great. Right now I'm not touching the computer until I understand what I can do. However, from a quick overview off all the commands, it looks like it may be possible to simply remove the new physical volume? TIA -- Jeff Macdonald Ayer, MA
