Hi Folks,

My Debian box has a 160GB HD configured as one volume group containing six
logical volumes one of which is home of size 138GB.  I want to use lvreduce
to shrink home so that I have space to increase the size of my other logical
volumes: eg. usr and root.   The manual page for lvreduce says, in part,
"You  should  therefore  ensure  that  any  filesystem  on the volume is
resized before running lvreduce so that the  extents  that  are  to  be
removed are not in use."  However, only 8GB, out of 138GB in home are in use
so this seems to me to be unecessary. Is this correct?

Robin
