Re: Increasing Volume group size
Better to set the disk size back to what it was, and then present another 2 x 20GB LUNs. You can then vgextend the volue group and then lvextend the logical volume with the filesystem on it. How you resize the filesystem depends on whether you have OnlineJFS or not.
In 11.23 and 11.31 there is a tool to change LVM structures on disk in the form of the "vgmodify" command. This was never officially back-ported to 11.11, although unsupported versions do exist... using unsupported tools on your data is not something I would consider.

Re: Increasing Volume group size
What you could have done would be to add a separate LUN (say 40GB) and then extend the volume on the new LUN/disk and then extend the filesystem.
What you should do now is to backup your current 20GB and create the volume again with the new size (60GB) and then restore the original 20GB of data.

Re: Increasing Volume group size
This is different in 11.23 and 11.31, where disks can grow, but this depends on the LVM version you use (1.0;2.0;2.1).
If you shrink the disks now, you have a risk to hit your data during this operation, so at this point I would do a backup ...
Hope this helps!

Torsten.
