Re: lvextend: Not enough free physical extents available
as of your lvdisplay the lv is stripped accross 4 PV's. so for extending the LV you need to hav free PE's on another 4 PVs.
Thanks,
Shanmugam.

Re: lvextend: Not enough free physical extents available
In vgdisplay 1998 PEs are free. So
Plz post output of below command.
#uname -a
#model
#pvdisplay /dev/dsk/c4t0d1
#pvdisplay /dev/dsk/c4t0d2
#pvdisplay /dev/dsk/c4t0d3
#pvdisplay /dev/dsk/c4t0d4
Are you using mirroring.
#lvdisplay -v /dev/vgdb/ (Full Output)
