For LVM, use e2fsadm.  Do a man on e2fsadm.  It will work flawlessly.  If
you are using ext3 partitions, I would change them to ext2 first.
1.  Umount the partition.
2.  Remove the journal, tune2fs -O^has_journal /dev/<Volume>/<Logical
Volume>
3.  Use e2fsadm
4.  Add the journal back, tune2fs -Ohas_journal /dev/<Volume>/<Logical
Volume>
5.  Mount the partition
<Volume> is your volume group
<Logical Volume> is your logical volume

The reason for removing the journal is that e2fsadm only works with ext2
filesystems
and the journal is created appropriately for the size of the filesystem.

FYI, LVM also makes it easy to move partitions from 1 disk to another.  man
pvmove.
