I am clueless on how to perform this as my original plan to just extend the volumes and create one large one failed. So I am here to ask for some help.
I basically have a CentOS NFS that needs more space and I need to merge two volumes, one is in use, and the other is just sitting there in vmware and my master plan of performing lvextend /dev/sda2 /dev/sdb1 failed. So here is the scenario - I have this CentOS Box which basically acts as a data store for logs, now I have 2tb on /dev/sdb1 /data which these logs are stored. I also have created another 2tb extended in vmware and I am trying to add the other 2tb to the one that is already in use. <see df -h & fdisk -l & > to make it a total of 4tb.
Any help would be much appreciated
