    If you are concerned about disk placement, you must do an extendlv,
    specifying exactly which disks to use, then do a chfs to increase the size
    of the filesystem.
    If you just do a chfs LVM will decide which disk to extend onto and you
    cannot directly control which disk(s) it will use.
