    No

    If you are using volume replication, volumes need to be the same size

    Thank you Symm

    So the process should be:
    1 - stop replication
    2 - increase the size of the volume on the two servers
    3 - restart replication

    is that correct?

    I'm trying to increase a logical volume that is used for replication, but I'm having troubles.

    Both our units have six LV's that are being replicated.
    I want to increase the size of 1 LV, so I've stopped the replication process on the source unit for the LV I'm trying to change.

    But when I try to modify the LV by choosing the action "modify lv0002", I cannot use the slider to increase the size, nor can I enter an amount of GB to add to the volume.

    Is there anything else I need to do?

    No one with any tips or ideas?
