    Dear admins

    I have a HP C240 workstation running 10.20 with
    two 9 Gb drives. Volume group vg00 spans both physical drives.

    Filesystem kbytes used avail %used Mounted on
    /dev/vg00/lvol3 86016 20721 61267 25% /
    /dev/vg00/lvol1 47829 27136 15910 63% /stand
    /dev/vg00/lvol8 512000 274912 222303 55% /var
    /dev/vg00/lvol7 544768 344612 188105 65% /usr
    /dev/vg00/lvol4 131072 54442 72797 43% /tmp
    /dev/vg00/lvol6 634880 446754 176616 72% /opt
    /dev/vg00/lvol5 12288000 8967315 3113440 74% /home

    I would like to replace the two 9 Gb drives with a 36 Gb drive
    so that I can allocate more disk space to /home.

    What's the best way of doing this?

    Thanks in advance.
