Does pvcreate imply pvscan? I.e. is LVM aware of the new pv so you can move onto it?
It becomes aware when the PV is added to VG. That's also when pvdisplay starts showing how many extents LVM thinks the volume's got so I have to do it anyway. LVM doesn't start moving because I end up with 1 less PE than Debian Installer managed to create on drives of exactly the same size. -- Best nightdreams.
