Some results somewhat shortened: >From cfdisk 750156.38Mb root@fireball / # pvs PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree /dev/sdc1 data lvm2 a-- 698.63g 0 root@fireball / # vgs VG #PV #LV #SN Attr VSize VFree data 1 1 0 wz--n- 698.63g 0 root@fireball / # lvs LV VG Attr LSize Origin Snap% Move Log Copy% Convert data1 data -wi-ao 698.63g root@fireball / # So, cfdisk is happy with the change but nothing else seems to see it. What am I missing here? Where did the 50Gbs go to? Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ... Not for what you understood or how you interpreted my words! Miss the compile output?
