Re: Logical Volume Extend Issue
If this host is part of a cluster, run:
service clvmd restart did the trick
If not, probably you need a patch.
Can you add the -v option to increase the messages?

Re: Logical Volume Extend Issue
I'm thinking three things - one of them is ugly.
The most obvious solution to try is a reboot - just incase some service or other has gotten out of whack. That's one.
The next is that you need a patch. Check to see what newer patch levels are available for lvm. Orrr - even your i/o card driver.
Lastly, I'm wondering if your file system is out to lunch on you. I believe there's a good chance your problem would go away if you backed up everything you've got, recreated your lvm structure, and restored.
I've seen it in on Linux boxes often enough, sometimes the file systems need a permanent vacation, so to speak. Of course, not as much as the Windows boxes, but certainly more than I've seen on HPUX.

Re: Logical Volume Extend Issue
I have found that if I add the physical device from the volume group it works
lvextend
-L+130G /dev/vg02/mbbvlv /dev/cciss/c0d1p3
