    On Power5 machine I have a hosting OS that is IBM i. I carved out 50GB on a NWS virtual scsi drive. The guest AIX v7 Lpar was installed and runs good.

    It soon ran out of free space. I then resized the NWS storage to 150GB.

    What are the steps I need to follow to get this new storage to show up on AIX v7. Searches in google are hinting to use extendvg.

    I have a feeling there are other steps required. Can anyone suggest an outline what is needed. Thx.
