My question is can we run the lvreduce on the lvol to bring it back down to 2548, or can we copy over the previous vg00.conf file under /etc/lvmconf directory ( I saved it off after the mistake was founded)
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Wrong Volume group on extend lvol
Since you haven't actually extended the *filesystem* housed within the logical volume, you can 'lvreduce' the logical volume to the original size.
As a precaution you should take an Ignite backup. Some files (e.g. the '/var/adm/sw' directory and its contents in '/var') are absolutely essential to your server.
Regards!

Re: Wrong Volume group on extend lvol
===> yes, you can as long as you haven't start using the new space.
can we copy over the previous vg00.conf file under /etc/lvmconf directory ?
===> no, that won't work.

Re: Wrong Volume group on extend lvol
You have to do lvreduce to reduce the logical volume by:
lvreduce -L (size in mb's) /dev/vg##/lvol#
and then try lvextend on the proper logical volume....be sure when you r extending or reducing your file system....a simple mistake of your's can make the file system into an inconsistent state...
