Hi,

do an lvdisplay to this lvol and check the allocation.

If the lvol mirrored and allocation is set to STRICT, then you have to divide the free space size with two.

Please try by useing only the lvextend command without specifying a disk:

# lvextend -L /dev/vgXY/lvolX

LVM will handle your request.

Regards,
Armin
