Hello! I am almost delivering a first version of this feature but now I am having doubts in how it might work or not. My implementation would use vgextend and add a disk to an existing LVM pool. The question is that, in this process, all existing data in the added partition will be deleted. Is this ok? We can warn the user about it, of course. But I am not sure if this is the intended design. I've spoken with Aline a while ago and she agreed that the implementation would function similar to what we have today when creating a new LVM pool. We simply "do not care" about the potential data loss when adding the disk to an existing pool. Any thoughts? thanks!
