I deleted the partition immediately in front of an LVM physical volume. I'd like to use the freed space as part of the LVM volume group. I know I could create a new partition in the same place, make it a physical volume and add it to the group, but because the space is contiguous, I wondered if it is possible just to move the front of the existing PV partition to include the freed space. I tried changing the start of the partition using fdisk, but then the PV is no longer recognized by LVM. I suppose that means that there is information about the PV stored in a particular location at the front of the partition. Putting the starting point back makes the PV recognizable again. So is there a utility that can move the front of a physical volume partition? (gparted and fdisk apparently can't).
