As you can see /dev/vgvedas has only 2GB free space.

Is it possible to resize filesystems of /dev/vgvedas with free PE of /dev/vg00 ?

Thanks in advance.

No, and it may well be you dont have 2GB free but only 1 (vg00 mirrored disks?...)

Your only alternative apart from adding some disks in vgvedas and would be as a temporary solution: move data out by creating in vg00 lets say a lvol10 of 800 MB mounted on /tempo (if vg00 were mirrored you could create a 700 mb lv unig one disk and extend of the same using the other giving you 1.4GB but at your own risc (unmirrored))
and either copy a subdir that holds in and doesnt grow etc.., remove the subdir and link :ln -s /tempo subdir
