To extend root FS in preceding lvols
I have a problem that my root fs is on lvol4 and swap is on lvol3 so I accidently increased the lvol3 to lvol4 which has no problems but now I want that space back on to root FS which is lvol4 but since it has contiguous policy so its not taking the space from the lvols preceding to the lvol4 rather its trying to take sapce from the next lvols e.g 5,6,7. Can anybody through light so that I can recover the free space from lvol3 and increase the root lvol4.
Your suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks in Advance!!!

Re: To extend root FS in preceding lvols
The only recommanded way to extend the root filesystem is taking ignite backup and restore it with modified LV sizes. There are certain ways to extend it without ignite, but it is with your own risk.
You cannot move around the lv's to reduce the space and assign it to root lv, since root lv needs contigious space.
Hope this helps..
Ganesh.
