Keith:

This appears to be the same as your post a few minutes ago -- answers are in that one.

Hi,

within your lvcreate you only
define three devices (-i 3).
That would give:
2115*4*3=25380 MB
But in your lvextend you want
36864 MB over five devices.
You have to recreate
the log. volume with:
lvcreate -i 5 -I 32 /dev/vg04
Then lvextend works.

You don't have enough space to create a 36864 MB logical volume. Reduce the size of the lv.

The error is connected to the fact that you have set the number of disks to stripe across to 3 ( -i 3) and the space is not sufficient to create a 36 GBs Lv . Insert -i 5 or decrease the size of lv (at most
it should be 2*4*3=24 GBs)

Thanks all

I'm having grief with my browser today - hence the multiple posts and missing the obvious 3 instead of 5 for the stripe???
You would not believe hour many minuetes/hours I have stared at this.

Appologies to all....

I'll sort the points out a little later..

Many Thanks

Keith
