LogicalExtentsNumber

[cbozlagan]

When I icrease size of logical volume that /tmp mounted on it. Sam gives me message below:

lvextend: "LogicalExtentsNumber" is not bigger than current setting".

According to message above I must increase LEN first. Afetr I can increase LV size.

How can I increase LogicalExtentsNumber?

Thanks.

Please post your command line or at least exactly what you did. Looks like you try to "increase" to a *smaller* size!

The new size must be = old size + extension

You probably forgot the old size in your calculation.

Hi,

I'm using sam menu about logical volumes.
Volume group has enought free space (aprox. 40GB)
Actual size of lv is 200 MB
I want to increase it to 10 GB.

It gives me message below:

lvextend: "LogicalExtentsNumber" is not bigger than current setting".

Thanks.

Did you try to "increase" to 10MB instead of 10GB by chance?
I think so.

Hi,

I used 10000 to express 10 GB.

Try

lvextend -L 10000 /dev/vg01/lvol4
(for your current LVOL)
