OK. Everyone duck, I been thinking on this and Neils info above. lol
This is what I sort of figured out and tell me where I am off here. I
have to reduce the file system, change the partition in cfdisk (?),
resize the lv, then reduce the vg, then I can run pvmove? After all
that, I can remove the drive sdb? Do I have the order correct too? If
it does involve all this, I'm not sure I want to do this. The file
system and cfdisk part makes me nervous. Maybe some of this isn't
needed and I am reading some of the info incorrectly, I hope.
Thanks.
