Not to nitpick/pile on but in order to help you quicker/better :-), it
would be nice to have more information. What FS/LV (FS = filesystem, LV
= logical volume) are you trying to expand? As Hajo suggested, please
provide some other information.
Based on the output you provided in your original post, it looks like
there are plenty of "PPs" (physical partitions) left on the
disk...unfortunately, that doesn't provide enough information to address
your question <G>. In addition to the name of the LV/FS that needs the
additional space, you might want to also include the output of these
commands:
- lsvg
- lsvg -l NAMEOFVG (substitute "NAMEOFVG" w/output of lsvg;
run once for each VG))
- lspv
(optionally, lsdev -Cc disk and lsfs -v jfs might be of some use too)
