I am trying to add a 4th disk to an existing lv. I am following the
directions in
http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/x802.html
but It is complaing about free physical extents when trying to extend during
the e2fsadm portion.
root]# pvscan
pvscan -- reading all physical volumes (this may take a while...)
pvscan -- ACTIVE PV "/dev/sdb1" of VG "Scratch" [33.91 GB / 240 MB free]
pvscan -- ACTIVE PV "/dev/sdc1" of VG "Scratch" [33.91 GB / 240 MB free]
pvscan -- ACTIVE PV "/dev/sdd1" of VG "Scratch" [33.91 GB / 240 MB free]
pvscan -- ACTIVE PV "/dev/sde1" of VG "Scratch" [33.91 GB / 33.91 GB free]
pvscan -- total: 4 [135.65 GB] / in use: 4 [135.65 GB] / in no VG: 0 [0]

I'm guessing you're trying to extend by too large a size. Use
pvdisplay on /dev/sde1 and note the number of physical extents free.
Then try passing that to e2fsadm with the '-l' flag instead of passing
33.91G with the '-L' flag. This is just a guess though. It's pretty
hard to tell without all the commands you ran and the output they gave
you.
