 +
 
 +
  # pvcreate /dev/sdd1

    Physical volume "/dev/sdd1" successfully created
 +
 
 +
  You sould now have an additional device:
 +
 
 +
  # ls -al /dev/sd*
 +
  brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8,  0 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sda

6. Extend the Volume Group, in this case called '''data'''
 +
 
 +
  # vgextend data /dev/sdd1
 +

So you have a logical volume that has run out of space and you need to add more. Either it's a VM and you've added another disk file or it's a physical server and you've added another disk.

1. Check the current disk devices with the following commands: 

 # pvscan
   PV /dev/sdb1   VG data   lvm2 [100.00 GiB / 0    free]
   PV /dev/sdc1    VG data  lvm2 [100.00 GiB / 0    free]
   PV /dev/sda3   VG vg1    lvm2 [47.84 GiB / 17.59 GiB free]
   Total: 4 [247.83 GiB] / in use: 3 [247.83 GiB] / in no VG: 0 [0   ]
 
 # ls -al /dev/sd*
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8,  0 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sda
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8,  1 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sda1
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8,  2 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sda2
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8,  3 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sda3
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 16 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sdb
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 17 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sdb1
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 32 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sdc
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 33 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sdc1

2. Scan the scsi bus to find the new disk

List the host SCSI adapters 

 # ls /sys/class/scsi_host/
 host0  host1  host2

Probe each host adapter 

 # echo "- - -" > /sys/class/scsi_host/host0/scan
 # echo "- - -" > /sys/class/scsi_host/host1/scan
 # echo "- - -" > /sys/class/scsi_host/host2/scan

3. Check to see if the new device is there 

 # ls -al /dev/sd*
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8,  0 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sda
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8,  1 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sda1
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8,  2 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sda2
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8,  3 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sda3
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 16 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sdb
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 17 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sdb1
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 32 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sdc
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 33 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sdc1
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 48 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sdd

4. Add the disk to your machine as a primary partition 

 # fdisk /dev/sdd
 Device contains neither a valid DOS partition table, nor Sun, SGI or OSF disklabel
 Building a new DOS disklabel with disk identifier 0x663d32f6.
 Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them.
 After that, of course, the previous content won't be recoverable.
 
 Warning: invalid flag 0x0000 of partition table 4 will be corrected by w(rite)
 
 WARNING: DOS-compatible mode is deprecated. It's strongly recommended to
          switch off the mode (command 'c') and change display units to
          sectors (command 'u').

    a   toggle a bootable flag
    b   edit bsd disklabel
    c   toggle the dos compatibility flag
    d   delete a partition
    l   list known partition types
    m   print this menu
    n   add a new partition
    o   create a new empty DOS partition table
    p   print the partition table
    q   quit without saving changes
    s   create a new empty Sun disklabel
    t   change a partition's system id
    u   change display/entry units
    v   verify the partition table
    w   write table to disk and exit
    x   extra functionality (experts only)

    e   extended
    p   primary partition (1-4)

 Command (m for help): w
 The partition table has been altered!
 
 Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table.
 Syncing disks.


5. Create a new physical LVM volume on our new disk. 

 # pvcreate /dev/sdd1
   Physical volume "/dev/sdd1" successfully created
 
 You sould now have an additional device:

 # ls -al /dev/sd*
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8,  0 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sda
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8,  1 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sda1
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8,  2 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sda2
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8,  3 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sda3
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 16 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sdb
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 17 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sdb1
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 32 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sdc
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 33 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sdc1
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 48 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sdd
 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 49 Jan 22 01:14 /dev/sdd1

6. Extend the Volume Group, in this case called data 

 # vgextend data /dev/sdd1
   Volume group "data" successfully extended

The new disk should now be added to the Volume Group: 

 # vgdisplay -v data
     Using volume group(s) on command line
     Finding volume group "data"

7. Extend the Logical Volume, in this example by 50Gb 

 # lvextend -L +50Gb /dev/data/blah
   Extending logical volume blah to 249.97 GiB
   Logical volume splunk successfully resized

8. Resize the Logical Volume to start using the new space 

 # resize2fs -p /dev/data/blah
 resize2fs 1.41.12 (17-May-2010)
 Filesystem at /dev/data/blah is mounted on /data; on-line resizing required
 old desc_blocks = 13, new_desc_blocks = 16
 Performing an on-line resize of /dev/data/blah to 65528832 (4k) blocks.
 The filesystem on /dev/data/blah is now 65528832 blocks long.
