Unable to extend LV
Hi all.

I have a Logical volume that I can't extend, with this error message:

Code:
server171:root:/root# lvextend -L +1024M -v /dev/aplic_vg/siteminderwa_lv
    Finding volume group aplic_vg
    Archiving volume group "aplic_vg" metadata (seqno 75).
  Extending logical volume siteminderwa_lv to 1.98 GB
    Found volume group "aplic_vg"
    Found volume group "aplic_vg"
    Loading aplic_vg-siteminderwa_lv table (253:40)
  device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: Invalid argument
  Failed to suspend siteminderwa_lv
    Creating volume group backup "/etc/lvm/backup/aplic_vg" (seqno 76).

Any idea about which could be the root cause?

vxdestroy_lvmroot

vxdestroy_lvmroot(1M)													     vxdestroy_lvmroot(1M)

NAME

       vxdestroy_lvmroot - remove LVM root disk and associated LVM volume group

SYNOPSIS

       vxdestroy_lvmroot [-v] [-b] lvm_root_disk

DESCRIPTION

       The  vxdestroy_lvmroot  command	tears  down  and removes the LVM volume group associated with the specified physical disk. This is done by
       removing the volumes in the volume group and then removing the volume group.

OPTIONS

       -b	 Invokes the setboot command to change the primary boot disk to the VxVM root disk from which the system was booted (if  the  pri-
		 mary  boot  disk is not already set to this disk).  The alternate boot device remains unchanged.  If the -v option is also speci-
		 fied, the settings of the primary and alternate boot devices are displayed.

       -v	 Outputs verbose messages including a timestamp that indicates major operations being performed.

ARGUMENTS

       lvm_root_disk
	    Specifies the device name of the LVM root disk that is to be destroyed, along with its entire volume group.

EXAMPLES

       This example shows the vxdestroy_lvmroot command invoked in its simpliest form:

       /etc/vx/bin/vxdestroy_lvmroot c5t1d0

       # /etc/vx/bin/vxdestroy_lvmroot -v -b c3t0d0
