hi

i'm playing with LVM and after a sucefull installation of RHEL under 3 VG=
 with diferents
LG now i want to add anothe PV to one othe already created VG and this is=
 the output of
vgextend:

[[email protected] lvmtab.d]# vgextend -v Mail /dev/cciss/c0d4p2
vgextend -- locking logical volume manager
vgextend -- please enter a volume group name first

if i add a 0 (cero) to the name vgextend at least check for the existence=
 of that VG

[[email protected] lvmtab.d]# vgextend -v Mail0 /dev/cciss/c0d4p2
vgextend -- locking logical volume manager
vgextend -- checking volume group name "Mail0"
vgextend -- checking volume group "Mail0" existence
vgextend -- volume group "Mail0" doesn't exist


the VG called "Mail" exist and is working fine, from the command vgdispla=
y:
--- Volume group ---
VG Name               Mail
VG Access             read/write
VG Status             available/resizable

Cur PV                2

VG Size               273.44 GB
PE Size               4 MB
Total PE              70000
Alloc PE / Size       70000 / 273.44 GB
Free  PE / Size       0 / 0
VG UUID               6aKaRr-KRIg-E8LS-9hE7-okXD-e58J-q4e8bZ


is this correct? is this only happening to me?
no where in the documentation say that the name of the VG have to had a n=
umber inside
(Although it suggest to do that during installation time)

thanks in advance for any tip
roger
