)?

Hi all. I am using procmail to deliver an email to a script I am developing. Procmail delivers the email to the script on standard input. I imagine this is the same as piping input from a command into the script. Hence I've been testing my script by running

pvresize
PVRESIZE(8) System Manager's Manual PVRESIZE(8)
NAME
pvresize - resize a disk or partition in use by LVM2
SYNOPSIS
pvresize [-d|--debug] [-h|--help] [-t|--test] [-v|--verbose] [--setphysicalvolumesizesize] PhysicalVolume [PhysicalVolume...]
DESCRIPTION
pvresize resizes PhysicalVolume which may already be in a volume group and have active logical volumes allocated on it.
OPTIONS
See lvm(8) for common options.
--setphysicalvolumesize size
Overrides the automatically-detected size of the PV. Use with care, or prior to reducing the physical size of the device.
EXAMPLES
Expand the PV on /dev/sda1 after enlarging the partition with fdisk:
pvresize /dev/sda1
Shrink the PV on /dev/sda1 prior to shrinking the partition with fdisk (ensure that the PV size is appropriate for your intended new parti-
tion size):
pvresize --setphysicalvolumesize 40G /dev/sda1
RESTRICTIONS
pvresize will refuse to shrink PhysicalVolume if it has allocated extents after where its new end would be. In the future, it should relo-
cate these elsewhere in the volume group if there is sufficient free space, like pvmove does.
pvresize won't currently work correctly on LVM1 volumes or PVs with extra metadata areas.
