    Hi,
    10.20 running on a K420

    I have a VG in this system that badly needs disk space. I cannot add any new
    disk to it because the 'MAX PV' is at the top of its limit. Everybody told me
    that I had to re-build this volume group, but I am wondering if there is any
    other ways at all to avoid doing this.

    If I vgexport this volume group, re-create a new vg with the same name, but
    higher 'MAX PV' value, and then vgimport all the LVs back into this volume
    group, would it work? It probably would not, because no such procedures were
    mentioned by any body, but can anyone explain to me why it would not work?

    TIA
