| Jan 1, 2019 at 7:00 | comment | added | davidgo | I should have explicitly stated you need to shrink the PV under LVM. | |
| Jan 1, 2019 at 6:58 | comment | added | davidgo | 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. | |
