I ran the fdisk  after resizing but before rebooting, so the device
(/dev/sdc) was the same size.

Just got it working on the other partition (took it nice and slow, and shut
down all the servers except for 1 and then worked of that that :p

On a side note... would standard LVM2 on the SAN probably be a better idea
that accessing the raw devices directly... at least it would save on reboots
perhaps? what sort of performance impact might this have?
