"LogicalExtentsNumber" is not bigger than current setting

hi,

You are mixing 2 different problems ... You've craeted your vg with default value for max PE (1016) which was enough for your 2Go disks. The disks that you are now adding need more PEs to be fully addressed. Unfortunately you can't modify this parameter, so to fully use your new disks, recreate the vg with -e option for vgcreate.

Your second problem is that you want to extend a lvol which is currently using 9 disks and has a size of 4500 PE * PE size = 18Go, but the size you specifie in lvextend is 1016 * PE size = 4Go which is clearly smaller. The size is extended to the specified size not by the specified size, so you should use something like lvextend -l 5516 xxx (4500+1016)

Regards.
