That is what I was looking for, but I find that it doesn't do what I wanted.

It has the documentation for adding 2 volumes to a new logical group and moving 
an existing directory structure to that group.

I currently have a two pack LVM and need to add a third pack.   This is on a 
test and development system and the LVM is for Oracle data.  On these systems, 
I'm letting Oracle manage the disk space.  In production, I've haven't found it 
necessary to alter this, but if we start having I/O performance problems, I may 
go for a more "performance" method.

Thanks

Subject: Adding dasd to LVM

Somewhere, there was a document, that was part of a manual that explained the 
steps needed in adding another disk to a LVM pool.  I can't find it.

So, I tried to do it from memory and yast seemed fine with it.  But when I 
added the disk to the pool, and then selected "max" to add the entire disk in, 
it didn't.

I think I took the defaults when setting up LVM.  There is one way of setting 
up LVM, that has better performance at the expense of not being able to expand 
it.  I don't think I set it up that way.

Anyway, I would like to find that manual again.

Thanks
