[Bug 884114] [NEW] partition size shown in stead of physical volume size

 

Public bug reported:

After shrinking the physical volume inside a partition, the disk utility
shows the old (larger) for the partition. Pvdisplay on the CLI shows the
correct size. I expect the physical volume to show it's real size
(200G), not the size of the partition (215G).

To reproduce: create a physical volume on a partition. Shrink the
physical volume but leave the partition's size untouched.
