&nbsp;<BR>
I setup a volume group it had 5.91G in Free PE/Size now states 0/0<BR>
I have a logical volume inside that I tried to extend<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
It now states 10.91 GB for LV Size. This lv is mounted to /home when I ran lvextend &#8211;L+5.91G /dev/vg/home it extended the lv but when you run df-h it doesn&#8217;t show an increased size.<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
/dev/mapper/vg-home &nbsp;&nbsp;5.0G &nbsp;1.6G &nbsp;3.2G &nbsp;33% /home<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
Apparently I missed a step and can&#8217;t find any information on how to fix this. Doesn&#8217;t it need to know how to format and add the LV extention?<BR>
Help would be great.<BR>

<BR>
Remember, the fs cannot be mounted when you extend it.</SPAN></FONT></FONT>
