<div>I just added a second hard drive to my backend but am unsure of what the mount should look like in FSTAB.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Here are the steps I've followed to get the VG ready, I have a VG of "VolGroup01":</div>
<div> </div>
<div>1) fdisk the drive (/dev/hdd), create a single partition and
change the type to 8e. ( I want to use the entire drive in the VG)</div>
<div>2) create the LVM using 'pvcreate /dev/hdd1'</div>
<div>3) extend the VG using 'vgextend VolGroup01 /dev/hdd1'</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Everything seems to be successful but I haven't mounted the drive.
So, I need to know how this should look in FSTAB, the VG is formatted
with 'JFS'.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Do I need to format this new drive /dev/hdd1 with JFS or does the VG take care of that?</div></blockquote><div><br>

The answers you seek can be found in the LVM HOWTO. In
particular, this page describes the procedures for resizing various
