I made a little mistake a few months ago
when I added a disk to my VG:
----- s n i p -----
celia:~# pvdisplay | egrep 'PV Name|Allocatable'
PV Name /dev/md0
Allocatable yes (but full)
PV Name /dev/hdc
Allocatable yes (but full)
PV Name /dev/sdd1
Allocatable yes (but full)
PV Name /dev/md2
Allocatable yes (but full)
PV Name /dev/md3
Allocatable yes
----- s n i p -----
What id like to do is move all data from sdd1
(372Gb) to the new md3 (just added - empty 465Gb)
and then remove sdd1 and create it as md1 and
move the data back.
But I'm afraid of holes in the FS (XFS)...
Also, hdc is just a 80Gb disk which I forgot
to remove when I added sdd1 (I had a 80Gb disk
laying around and not enough money) so I'd
like to remove it completely (move the physical
data to some other PV - md3 because of free
space on that).
Any advice in which procedure I should use
to accomplish this?
