NAME
     xlvExtend - extend an xlv volume

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/sysadm/privbin/xlvExtend -d new partition -o objectName -M device
     file | -m mount dir

DESCRIPTION
     xlvExtend adds another partition to a logical volume and then grows the
     filesystem on it.	The data already on the logical volume remains intact,
     but any information previously on the partition that is being added will
     be destroyed.  This command calls xlv_make(1M) to make the new partition
     into a volume, xlv_mgr(1M) to add the volume element to the logical
     volume, and xfs_growfs(1M) to grow the filesystem onto the new volume.

     This privcmd is not intended to be called from the command line.
     xlv_make(1M) and xlv_mgr(1M)provide a more interactive interface for
     managing xlv volumes.

OPTIONS
     -d new partition
	  The name of the partition to add.  The "/dev/dsk/" part of the path
	  should be omitted.  Any information on this partition will be
	  destroyed.

     -o objectName
	  The name to give the new volume element that is created.

     -M device file
	  If the logical volume is not currently mounted, then this argument
	  must be given.  It is the full pathname to the logical volume.

     -m mount dir
	  If the logical volume is currently mounted, then this argument must
	  be given.  It is the directory where the logical volume is mounted.
