Hi,
I've got a similar problem to the one reported earlier in June by Peter
Daum.
I've got a hardware-raid5 that I've extended (/dev/sdk), and after
extending it, I get the kernel to recognize the new size.
But pvresize is still using the old size. I'm pretty convinced that a
reboot will solve this issue for me, but isn't there a way
of solving this without rebooting?
$ cat /sys/block/sdk/size
4882708480
# blockdev --getsz /dev/sdk
3906166784
# pvresize -v -d /dev/sdk
