I would suggest you to check for the latest patches available for LVM. It may be an issue because lvm cumulative patches are not updated since q quite long time..

i dont see problem to extend the logical volume.
your PE size 32 MB and free PE 3984 Total free space: 127488 MB.

Are you sure the command same with this :
lvextend -L 1400000 /dev/vg06/
extendfs -F vxfs /dev/vg06/


thanks

Hi Jeff:

Post the commandline that you are trying to use to perform the increase along with the exact error you receive.

Hi Jeff,
Is your logical volume striped? May be you might run out of free extends on some of the Physical volumes.

Please post your, vgdisplay -v /dev/VGNAME,
lvdisplay /dev/VGNAME/LVOLNAMe and command which you have used to extend the logical volume.
