we only want to use LVM with one Logical volume, and want to use the 100% of available space.
is there any way to create it? Look:

acrol ~ # vgdisplay
--- Volume group ---
VG Name               mirror
[...]
VG Size               232.88 GB
PE Size               32.00 MB
Total PE              7452
Alloc PE / Size       7452 / 232.88 GB
Free PE / Size       0 / 0
[...]

acrol ~ # lvcreate -L232.88G -nlv00 mirrorPoe
Rounding up size to full physical extent 232.91 GB
Insufficient free extents (7452) in volume group mirrorPoe: 7453 required

How to use all the 7452 PE? Thanks in advance

Best regards!
