Also, once that partition is added to  the VG, can LVs, new or existing, bridge across its boundaries, or must an LV be limited in size to within the contiguous boundary, i.e. <= 100 GB?

Not at all, you can even add another disk and add only a portion of it the the VG before expanding the LV. That is one of the reasons for why it was invented back when disks where small and the need for space for a ever larger growing database was needed.

Thanks for explaining! Very useful indeed :-) BenDJ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
