Yes, it is possible. What's the command you're using and the error
you get? The maximum size of a logical volume is a function of the
volume group physical extent size (I don't remember the details).
You may need to create the volume group with a larger physical
extent in order to have larger capacity logical volumes, for
instance, 'vgcreate -s 16m ...'. As far as I know, you do have to
recreate the volume group in order to change the physical extent
size. Hope this helps.
