Overrides the automatically-detected size of the PV. Use with care, or |
27 |
prior to reducing the physical size of the device. |
|
28 |
.SH EXAMPLES |
|
29 |
Expand the PV on /dev/sda1 after enlarging the partition with fdisk: |
|
30 |
.sp
|
|

.B pvresize /dev/sda1 |
|
32 |
.sp
|
|
33 |
Shrink the PV on /dev/sda1 prior to shrinking the partition with fdisk |
|
34 |
(ensure that the PV size is appropriate for your intended new partition |
|
35 |
size): |
