Why not simply adding a new ovirt disk/direct lun and adding it to the existing LVM group instead of extending the initial disk? This is a very common way to achieve your goal.

I'm not talking about extending the initial disk. When I build a self-hosted-engine, I also use a 100GiB storage domain, but when the install process requests the image, I use the provided image, and when it ask for the disk size, I state it as 75GiB. (The SHE install has an issue when exceeding 80%) The install procedure creates a 28GiB disk image, and the remaining space between 28GiB and 75GiB is unallocated. It is this space I am creating another physical volume on, and using this physical volume to expand the volume group, and logical volume, to expand the root filesystem. I personally have an issue with expanding root filesystems across multiple disks. I haven't done it, and won't make a recommendation until I do.
