    OK, thank you. Yes I did all steps except step 5, because I thought the resize would work without reboot ...

    Do you plan an update which will allow PV resize WITHOUT reboots?? Would be great, a storage box should be online the whole time, and each downtime for these and that would be very annoying ...

    regards,

    Yes, annoying. Assumed that Open-e uses LVM stuff --as some log messages insist--, handling of PV, VG and LV should work without reboots.

    Similar problem is the creation --just creation!-- of iSCSI volumes when a warning box pops up that iSCSI connections would be resetted. I wonder why running connections are affected by creating a LV and setting it up to be usable for iSCSI. I can do all this on a Linux machine without a reset of running connections.

    best,
    Robert
