What's the command you're using and the error you get? The maximum size of a logical volume is a function of the volume group physical extent size (I don't remember the details). You may need to create the volume group with a larger physical extent in order to have larger capacity logical volumes, for instance, 'vgcreate -s 16m ...'. As far as I know, you do have to recreate the volume group in order to change the physical extent size. Hope this helps. --- Daniel Barbar fnt wrote: > Hello, > > It is possible to extend a volumen more than 256 gigas? > it doesnt let me grow the space. > this is muy info : > root]# cat /proc/lvm/global > LVM module LVM version 1.0.3(19/02/2002) > > Total: 1 VG 2 PVs 1 LV (1 LV open 1 times) > > Global: 449424 bytes malloced IOP version: 10 1175 days 12:40:03 active > > VG: gl [2 PV, 1 LV/1 open] PE Size: 4096 KB > Usage [KB/PE]: 294883328 /71993 total 113950720 /27820 used 180932608 > /44173 free > PVs: [AA] ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part4 113950720 /27820 113950720 > /27820 0 /0 > [AA] ide/host0/bus0/target1/lun0/part1 180932608 /44173 0 /0 > 180932608 /44173 > LV: [AWDL ] vol1 113950720 /27820 1x open > > i have installed: lvm-1.0.1-2mdk.i586.rpm > > thanks on advanced. > > > _______________________________________________ > linux-lvm mailing list > linux-lvm@sistina.com > http://lists.sistina.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm > read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/ -- Daniel Barbar
