For those who prefers the command line utilities, there is a good howto : http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
The "common tasks" section should be read first for people who don't like docs :-) These commands are part of the LVM2 package under SLES. On 7/26/06, Ranga Nathan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I cheated. I used YaST for all LVM management. The only thing I have to constantly remind myself is, to be safe, always do a "mkinitrd" and "zipl" to make sure that the LVM comes up at next boot time. Looking at http://linux.about.com/library/cmd/blcmdl8_e2fsadm.htm , I see that e2fsadm allow you to resize mounted file systems as well. That is definitely a plus. resize2fs requires unmounting file systems. BTW, it would be nice to have some polymorphism here across file systems - same command that recognizes the file system and issue different commands.
