Sweet! Thanks Tim. I think you and Brad found the solution. I owe you both a beer some time. A single. Beer.
Brad, that makes damn near a six pack I owe you, right?

How in the heck am I going to get around that? :) Do I need to boot to single user and use the command line tools? Even then, / will be mounted and I'll probably be unable to unmount.

You just need to select the volume you want to extend and then extend it into the free space This is the great thing about LVM. You can provision a server ,and then if it turns out you didn't give it enough space, you can add space to it without reconfiguring On Thu, Jul 16, 2009 at 3:34 PM, Jarred White <[email protected]> wrote: Okay, I now have sdb1 added to VolGroup00. Under which I see /dev/sda and /dev/sdb. Is that all that remains, or is it necessary to do something else with the volume after merging it with an existing volume group? Here's the updated screenshot: http://tp.eblana.org/newlogvol.bmp if what I'm seeing makes sense, then this should be the last stop? I should be able to apply these changes and then reboot, and when I reboot I should find that there are no problems?

You want to Initialize the entity (this turns the volume into an LVM-compatible volume) Then, you're going to add it to your VolGroup00 Then you're going to Extend your desired LogVol to include the space that's been made available by the new storage On Thu, Jul 16, 2009 at 3:22 PM, Jarred White <[email protected]> wrote: Here's a screenshot of lvm.

You currently have "defaults" listed, but there are other options. "defaults" should be ok, but possibly need to change it. My suse boxes have "acl,user_xattr". Did you say which distro this is? Are you sure mount point is correct? You did say, you're using Fedora. I happen to have Fedora on my laptop, the mount points in my default fstab are for volume groups: like this: UUID=aafdafasfxxxsdfsdf /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 /dev/mapper/vg_lela-lv_root / ext4 defaults 1 2 /dev/mapper/vg_lela-lv_swap swap defaults 0 0 So, maybe your mount point is not right? Can we see your existing fstab? and the output of fdisk -l bb On Thu, Jul 16, 2009 at 1:35 PM, Jarred White<[email protected]> wrote: > Good question.
