Re: moving disk from one lv to another lv in same VG

Yes.  That is what the 'pvmove' command is for.

 

You can use 'pvmove' to move the current LV off of the disk, to another disk in the VG, and then again to move the data for your other LV onto this disk.

 

See the 'pvmove' man page for details on the command usage.
