Uh... you don't generally extend RAID 5.  But if your hardware
raid solution has unutilized disks (or disks you can add), you can
create a new logical hw raid disk and easily add that disk into existing
volume groups.

If you have left over space on your existing logical disk, that
too can be added quite easily.  You need to provide more info.
