Hi all,

I have successfully hooked up Proxmox to my SAN (recent forum posts not withstanding ;)) but now I want to resize the LUN. I have resized it on the SAN - what do I need to do on Proxmox?

Hi,
if i understand you right, you have extended the disk, which you use as external storage in proxmox?!
Do you use the full disk for the volume group or a partition, like sdd1?
For the whole disk use something like
Code:
pvresize /dev/sdd
If you have a partition, you can expand the partition, or create an second on the disk and add the second partiion, like
Code:
pvcreate /dev/sdd2; vgextend san-vg /dev/sdd2

Hope it's help
