Bug 429122

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #154691 +++
RHEL5 clone

Description of problem:
With computers now days, one shouldn't have to do any math in their head. :)
Since I can add a PV to a VG without any size option, I should be able to do the
 same when adding a PV to a LV, or better yet, if I already added the PV to the
VG, the lv should be able to extend out to the full size of the VG by default.
 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@tank-03 ~]# rpm -qa | grep lvm2
lvm2-2.01.08-1.0.RHEL4
lvm2-cluster-2.01.09-1.1.RHEL4


The following should "just work":
[root@tank-03 ~]# lvextend /dev/grow/grow /dev/sda3 
  Please specify either size or extents (not both)
  lvextend: Add space to a logical volume

lvextend
        [-A|--autobackup y|n]
        [--alloc AllocationPolicy]
        [-d|--debug]
        [-h|--help]
        [-i|--stripes Stripes [-I|--stripesize StripeSize]]
        {-l|--extents [+]LogicalExtentsNumber |
         -L|--size [+]LogicalVolumeSize[kKmMgGtT]}
        [-n|--nofsck]
        [-r|--resizefs]
        [-t|--test]
        [--type VolumeType]
        [-v|--verbose]
        [--version]
        LogicalVolume[Path] [ PhysicalVolumePath... ]

but instead I have to do math and figure out the size to extend out too:
[root@tank-03 ~]# lvextend -L 274.06G /dev/grow/grow /dev/sda3
  Rounding up size to full physical extent 274.06 GB
  Extending logical volume grow to 274.06 GB
  Logical volume grow successfully resized
