Hi all.

I seem to be missing 100Gb out of a possible 300Gb!  Check it out:

[root at filmore jdiehl]# fdisk -l | grep LVM
/dev/sdb5           226      4402  33551721   8e  Linux LVM
/dev/sdb6          4403      8579  33551721   8e  Linux LVM
/dev/sdb7          8580     12756  33551721   8e  Linux LVM
/dev/sdb8         12757     15030  18265873+  8e  Linux LVM
/dev/sdc6          7015     14028  56339923+  8e  Linux LVM
/dev/sdc7         14029     21042  56339923+  8e  Linux LVM
/dev/sdc8         21043     28056  56339923+  8e  Linux LVM
/dev/sdc9         28057     30945  23205861   8e  Linux LVM
[root at filmore jdiehl]#

Adding this space up, I get 311Gb.

But:

[root at filmore jdiehl]# lvdisplay /dev/Database2/data
--- Logical volume ---
LV Name                /dev/Database2/data
VG Name                Database2
LV Write Access        read/write
LV Status              available
LV #                   1
# open                 1
LV Size                215.3 GB
Current LE             27558
Allocated LE           27558
Allocation             next free
Read ahead sectors     120
Block device           58:0

Here we see that I only have access to 215Gb. 

Where is the rest of my space?
