vgextend error
by mehhos from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4TZAY)
Hi,
I try to add disk to exciting LVM:
1) I created pv dnd it was successful
[root@sftp idurfoto]# pvscan
PV /dev/vda2 VG centos lvm2 [47.51 GiB / 44.00 MiB free]
PV /dev/vdb VG sftpvg lvm2 [1.98 TiB / 0 free]
PV /dev/vdc VG sftpvg lvm2 [1.98 TiB / 0 free]
PV /dev/vdd VG sftpvg lvm2 [1.98 TiB / 0 free]
PV /dev/vde VG sftpvg lvm2 [1024.00 GiB / 0 free]
PV /dev/vdf lvm2 [300.00 GiB]
Total: 6 [7.29 TiB] / in use: 5 [7.00 TiB] / in no VG: 1 [300.00 GiB]
[root@sftp idurfoto]#
2) try to extend VG but getting error:
[root@sftp idurfoto]# vgextend sftpvg /dev/mapper/sftpvg-sftp
Can't open /dev/sftpvg/sftp exclusively. Mounted filesystem?
[root@sftp idurfoto]# df -h
