[Xen-users] what's correct way of shrinking LVM based domU?

[Rudi Ahlers <Rudi@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all

I want to shrink one of my LVM based domU's, but don't quite know how to 
do it.
I have searched the Wiki  & HOWTO's, and they all show you how expand / 
enlarge a LVM based domU, but not shrinking it.
So, I stopped (destroyed) the domU, and then resized it as follows: 
lvresize /dev/data/cpanel1 -L10GB (It was 100GB), but when I a started 
it up again, I got some errors about the the disk being corrupt, and 
then a kernel panic.
So, how should I shrink a LVM based domU?
