  • I tried to test this out under VirtualBox using 10GB disks and it looks like this is not possible. After recreating RAID on the new partitions I do not get back the volume group.

  • This is doable, but high risk. You need to back up first, then ensure the LVM has space free at the end, then shrink RAID (using --grow ! ) then finish a full rebuild RAID, remove first disk, partition, add back.

  • I should have explicitly stated you need to shrink the PV under LVM.

  • @davidgo Shrinking RAID and rebuilding makes sense. I will try this.
