  • Extending Striped LVM on xfs

    Posted on

    hello,
    i was wondering what best practice would be to grow a striped logical volume. the server is a VM and its striped logical volume consists of 4 RDMs.
    my understanding would be to;
    change RDM size at the vmware level
    rescan scsi on the server (so reboot not required)
    preform vgextend onto the new presented size
    do lvextend
    then do grow_xfs on the logical striped volume

    or do i have to create 4 new separate RDMs of a same size to original
    add these into volume group
    extend volume group
    extend logical volume
    grow xfs

    i will be testing this but would like other peoples experiences on what worked best?
