Combining LVs within a Single VG

Hi All,
I have a VG that has 4 LVs in it, is it possible to make a single LV of these 4 without losing the data? It is HP-UX 11.23

Re: Combining LVs within a Single VG

There was a very similar question yesterday:

http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=1180469

short: backup, delete 3 lvols, extend the first, restore the data

Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

caster,

There is no way to merge all Lv into single LV. Backup and restore ;-)
