Well, you have a LOT of disks in this VG. 29 right now, and you would like to put the 30th in. This is big. When you use the factor "6" as in your example, you can have only 21 PV-s in the VG. Try a smaller factor. Or omit factor entirely to let chvg choose a value.
Also - if you have the opportunity to do that - you should recreate that VG with bigger PP size - 1GB is not too big to a 5TB volume group. Also, if it is not defined as "big VG", the PV limit is 32 which is scary close.

I am running solaris 10 with Veritas. I want to extend a filesystem. It's an oracle partition (/ora12). How can I find out if there is space available to expand the filesystem and then how does one extend it.
I'm from the HPUX world and so LVM was always how I did things.
Thanks
