Resizing logical volumes

Hi,
I have installed FC5 using LVM. During installation I chose the /usr volume
apparently too small, because now there is not enough room to install
updates.
To solve this problem, I would like to decrease my /home volume (LogVol03) by
some 3GB and increase the /usr volume (LogVol01) by the same amount. /home
physically resides on /dev/hda2 whereas /usr resides on /dev/hda3.
I was thinking of using system-config-lvm for this. Is that a good idea? Can
this whole operation be executed without data loss? It is possible to execute
system-config-lvm while the partitions are mounted?
Thanks,
Aad
