    I mean when the pv size increased, how can I grow vg to it's new size.
    I'm using a DS4400 and the logical drive I used in AIX was 100GB, a vg was created on it. Then I increasd it to 120GB, in StorageManager. However, AIX does not allow me to extend the vg to the new size of the pv. How can I do that?

    or post the error command and error message.
