[Fedora-xen] FC5/Xen LVM resize question

Hi,

im playing around with Xen and FC5. There is one thing i dont get 
working. When i resize a logical volume in dom0 with lvextend, and 
this volume is used and mounted in a domU, it seems that the domU does 
not notice the new size of the partition until rebooted.
Should this work somehow without rebooting the domU, or is this the 
intended behavior?

I think, i could create a volume goup inside of a domU and add space 
to the domU by adding new block devices and adding their space to the 
volume group. But is this really a clever way of doing this, or are 
there any easier ways?

Thanks a lot,
Heinz
