I suggest "man du ..." with the -x or --one-file-system flag along with the others. That will tell you where the largest stuf is at.

If you need to do that after the above investigation, it will not be hard as pvcreate and lgexpand (?, man not at hand) will allow easy expansion. <snip> HTH -- Bill _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
