Morning again, 

New linux admin here.  

I've added a new volume to the Volume group, and now I am trying to extend a 
logical volume.  

I'm following section 11.3 of the SLES 11 SP 1 Virtualization Cookbook, page 
199. 

A df -h /home (which is the 'volume' I want to extend) shows: 

galileo:~ # df -h /home
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/system_vg-home--vg
                      148M   17M  124M  12% /home


When I try the lvextend command, I receive the following: 

galileo:~ # lvextend -l +586 /dev/system_vg/home
  Logical volume home not found in volume group system_vg


I've looked at the lvextent --help, and the 'man' pages, but no matter what I 
specify for '/home', it is rejected.  

system_vg is the name of the LVM group I created when I installed the System.  

The full df output is below. 


Your assistance is greatly appreciated. 

Thanks, 
Dave
