Awesome, thanks for that.

Manpage for chvg -g option confirms it:
Code:
       -g
            Will examine all the disks in the volume group to see if they have grown in size. If any disks have grown in size attempt to add additional PPs
            to PV. If necessary will determine proper 1016 multiplier and conversion to big vg. Notes:
              1    The user might be required to execute varyoffvg and then varyonvg on the volume group for LVM to see the size change on the disks.
              2    There is no support for re-sizing while the volume group is activated in classic or enhanced concurrent mode.
              3    There is no support for re-sizing for the rootvg.

Cheers.

NAME
vgreduce - reduce a volume group SYNOPSIS
vgreduce [-a|--all] [-A|--autobackup y|n] [-d|--debug] [-h|-?|--help] [--removemissing] [-t|--test] [-v|--verbose] VolumeGroupName [Physi- calVolumePath...] DESCRIPTION
vgreduce allows you to remove one or more unused physical volumes from a volume group. OPTIONS
See lvm for common options. -a, --all Removes all empty physical volumes if none are given on command line. --removemissing Removes all missing physical volumes from the volume group, if there are no logical volumes allocated on those. This resumes normal operation of the volume group (new logical volumes may again be created, changed and so on). If this is not possible (there are logical volumes referencing the missing physical volumes) and you cannot or do not want to remove them manually, you can run this option with --force to have vgreduce remove any partial LVs. Any logical volumes and dependent snapshots that were partly on the missing disks get removed completely. This includes those parts that lie on disks that are still present. If your logical volumes spanned several disks including the ones that are lost, you might want to try to salvage data first by acti- vating your logical volumes with --partial as described in lvm (8).
