Hello everyone! I'm using a disk with ecrypted LVM.
It's working basically like this: *#pvdisplay* --- Physical volume --- PV Name /dev/dm-0 VG Name vg01 PV Size 148.79 GiB / not usable 1.29 MiB Allocatable NO PE Size 4.00 MiB Total PE 38091 Free PE 14836 Allocated PE 23255 PV UUID *#vgdisplay * --- Volume group --- VG Name vg01 System ID Format lvm2 Metadata Areas 1 Metadata Sequence No 9 VG Access read/write VG Status resizable MAX LV 0 Cur LV 3 Open LV 0 Max PV 0 Cur PV 1 Act PV 1 VG Size 148.79 GiB PE Size 4.00 MiB Total PE 38091 Alloc PE / Size 23255 / 90.84 GiB Free PE / Size 14836 / 57.95 GiB VG UUID *# lvdisplay * --- Logical volume --- LV Name /dev/vg01/swap VG Name vg01 LV UUID rX3sdV-C949-uXzv-cZrU-xxzl-fskbI-ngJK22 LV Write Access read/write LV Status available # open 0 LV Size 2.54 GiB Current LE 650 Segments 1 Allocation inherit Read ahead sectors auto - currently set to 256 Block device 252:1 --- Logical volume --- LV Name /dev/vg01/root VG Name vg01 LV UUID VmFLr3-hiul-qwgy-igDc-6gfC-dfek-Xwfdsf LV Write Access read/write LV Status available # open 0 LV Size 38.30 GiB Current LE 9805 Segments 2 Allocation inherit Read ahead sectors auto - currently set to 256 Block device 252:2 --- Logical volume --- LV Name /dev/vg01/home VG Name vg01 LV UUID ewrm9-khytr-kjkhj-dasd-LLUI-5CDok-pddsA LV Write Access read/write LV Status available # open 0 LV Size 50.00 GiB Current LE 12800 Segments 1 Allocation inherit Read ahead sectors auto - currently set to 256 Block device 252:3 I still have 57G to create new volumes....That`s the problem....I have space ...but when I try to create the LV...ERROR *#lvcreate --size 57G --name novolv vg01 * * Insufficient free space: 14592 extents needed, but only 0 available* As I said in the subject, my LVM is encrypted...therefore I unlocked the disk and tried again: *#cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda2 crypt1 #vgscan --mknodes #vgchange-ay* * * *#vgchange -ay* same problem! Any hints?
