LVM - lvextend

[kahoona]

I can't get my LV (mythlv) to extend with the free PE's in my volume group (mythvg). I'm using openSuSE 10.2. The filesystem is an ext3 and I have tried with the filesystem (/mythmedia) mounted and unmounted. Here's the info in my LVM:

ehud:/ # vgs
VG #PV #LV #SN Attr VSize VFree
mythvg 1 1 0 wz--n- 37.25G 6.00G
ehud:/ # vgdisplay mythvg | grep Free
Free PE / Size 384 / 6.00 GB
ehud:/ #
ehud:/ # lvs
LV VG Attr LSize Origin Snap% Move Log Copy%
mythlv mythvg -wi-ao 31.25G

Here's how I created the VG:
vgcreate -s 16M mythvg /dev/hdd1

Here's how I have tried to extend the LV:
ehud:/ # lvextend -l 100%VG /dev/mythvg/mythlv
Extending logical volume mythlv to 37.25 GB
Insufficient free space: 2384 extents needed, but only 384 available
ehud:/ # lvextend -l +384 /dev/mythvg/mythlv
Extending logical volume mythlv to 37.25 GB
Insufficient free space: 2384 extents needed, but only 384 available
ehud:/ # lvextend -l+384 /dev/mythvg/mythlv
Extending logical volume mythlv to 37.25 GB
Insufficient free space: 2384 extents needed, but only 384 available
ehud:/ # lvextend -l100%VG /dev/mythvg/mythlv
Extending logical volume mythlv to 37.25 GB
Insufficient free space: 2384 extents needed, but only 384 available
ehud:/ #


If I remove the LV and recreate it, it can use all the space on the disk, but I'd rather not have to do this. Any ideas?

For everyone who had no idea what the problem was, SuSE's lvm2-2.02.13-10 has a bug in it that was fixed with an update called lvm2-2.02.13-10.2. After upgrading to it, the steps above worked as expected.

BEFORE:
a324@ehud:~> rpm -qa | grep lvm
lvm2-2.02.13-10
a324@ehud:~>

AFTER:
a324@ehud:~> rpm -qa | grep lvm
lvm2-2.02.13-10.2
a324@ehud:~>
