adding free pp's to your vg
I have free pp's in my volume group. What is the command to add those pp's to used pps. I'm using RAWLV's. Thanks.

I'm guessing that you want to extend currently LV's?

Code:
extendlv <lv_name> <PP's to add> [PV_name]

For example:

Code:
extendlv mylv 2 hdisk4

Specifying the disk name(s) is optional.

Padow,
So I have 17 free PP's in the VG. I guess I need to create another LV and assign the PP's to it?

You can extend your current lv's with the command I listed above, or make a new lv with the mklv command. I guess what it really depends on is what application is using the lv's. Does it support discovering/utilizing more space on a previously defined volume.
