Linux服务器由于应用变更或需求的缘故，有可能出现分区空间不足的情况，此时往往需要进行扩容（要增加分区的空间），而采用LVM的好处就是可以在不需停机的情况下可以方便地调整各个分区大小。如下所示，分区/u05由于备份集保留的时间调整，RMAN备份时出现空间不足的情况，如下所示，

我在添加了一块虚拟磁盘后（虚拟机），此时使用fdisk -l查不到刚刚添加的新磁盘，此时需要运行命令echo "- - -" > /sys/class/scsi_host/host0/scan重新扫描该接口下的SCSI磁盘设备。
关于该命令它是通过/sys下的属性设置运行SCSI扫描。echo "- - -" > scan "- - -"代表channel，target和LUN编号。以上命令会导致hba4下所有channel，target以及可见LUN被扫描。

1:格式化分区
格式化磁盘设备/dev/sdh， 下面是采用逻辑扩展分区。关于格式分区时是否一定要修改分区类型为8e（LVM格式），我查了一些资料，这个不是必须的。鸟哥的Linux私房菜里面的原话为：“那个8e的出现会导致system变成Linux LMV！ 其实没有设定为8e也没有关系，不过某些LMV的侦测指令可能会侦测不到该partition就是了”
[root@getlnx01 ~]# fdisk /dev/sdhDevice contains neither a valid DOS partition table, nor Sun, SGI or OSF disklabel
Building a new DOS disklabel. Changes will remain in memory only,until you decide to write them. After that, of course, the previous
content won't be recoverable.
The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 10443.There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
(e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

2：新建物理卷(PV)

4：处理文件系统
VG扩展后，/u05分区还不能实时增加空间，还需要使用resize2fs –p命令激活新增加的空间
[root@getlnx01 ~]# resize2fs -p /dev/VolGroup05/LogVol00 resize2fs 1.39 (29-May-2006)
Filesystem at /dev/VolGroup05/LogVol00 is mounted on /u05; on-line resizing required
Performing an on-line resize of /dev/VolGroup05/LogVol00 to 68141056 (4k) blocks.
The filesystem on /dev/VolGroup05/LogVol00 is now 68141056 blocks long.
