Yes, that helped me understand what I did wrong. It looks like from your other post that since i created a file system at that time it created an underlying LV. thanks for the help. I will read more to see what needs to be done to resolve this issue.

Thank you for your help. After reading your other post I understand my error. I have removed all of my issues and successfully added and extended the logical volume on my root. Now i am going to try and add another disk and create a new logical volume and see how it goes.

lvdisplay
LVDISPLAY(8) System Manager's Manual LVDISPLAY(8)
NAME
lvdisplay - display attributes of a logical volume
SYNOPSIS
lvdisplay [-c|--colon] [-d|--debug] [-D|--disk] [-h|--help] [-v[v]|--verbose] LogicalVolumePath [LogicalVolumePath...]
DESCRIPTION
lvdisplay allows you to see the attributes of a logical volume like size, read/write status, snapshot information etc.
OPTIONS
-c, --colon
Generate colon seperated output for easier parsing in scripts or programs.
The values are:
* logical volume name
* volume group name
* logical volume access
* logical volume status
* internal logical volume number
* open count of logical volume
* logical volume size in kilobytes
* current logical extents associated to logical volume
* allocated logical extents of logical volume
* allocation policy of logical volume
* read ahead sectors of logical volume
* major device number of logical volume
* minor device number of logical volume
-d, --debug
Enables additional debugging output (if compiled with DEBUG).
-D, --disk
Show attributes of the volume group descriptor array on disk(s). Without this switch they are derived from kernel space. Useful,
if the volume group isn't active.
-h, --help
Print a usage message on standard output and exit successfully.
-v, --verbose
Display the mapping of logical extents to physical volumes and physical extents.
-vv, --verbose --verbose
Like -v with verbose runtime information.
Examples
"lvdisplay -v /dev/vg00/lvol2" shows attributes of that logical volume and its mapping of logical to physical extents. In case snapshot
logical volumes have been created for this original logical volume, this command shows a list of all snapshot logical volumes and their
status (active or inactive) as well.
"lvdisplay /dev/vg00/snapshot" shows the attributes of this snapshot logical volume and also which original logical volume it is associated
with.
DIAGNOSTICS
lvdisplay returns an exit code of 0 for success or > 0 for error:
1 no logical volume name(s) on command line
95 driver/module not in kernel
96 invalid I/O protocol version
97 error locking logical volume manager
98 invalid lvmtab (run vgscan(8))
99 invalid command line
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
LVM_VG_NAME
The default Volume Group Name to use. Setting this variable enables you to enter just the Logical Volume Name rather than its com-
plete path.
