Thumbs up vinod

Hey

I am also facing the similar problem but there is no solution other than recreating the file system.

Thumbs up Filesystem increase

Hi,

Issue this command to increase the max pp's per pv. It will just double the capability (1016 to 2032).

"chvg -t 2 <vg name>"

Hope this shud solve ur problem.


Cheers.
Vinod

Sorry, vino, but this won't work.

chvg -t changes only the number of physical partitions in a physical volume and leaves filesystems completely unaffected. What it does is to double the number of possible PPs on a single harddisk. It could be used if you created a VG with, say, 32MB PP-size and now want to use 72GB-disks in it. Beware, though, because the factor also limits the number of physical volumes ("harddisks") the VG can contain. By using factor 2 you are doubling the size but halving the number of disks you can use.
