option is mandatory when creating a new logical volume, and optional if you are reusing an
existing logical volume using the <option>--useexisting</option> or
<option>--noformat</option> option.

not be used together with the <option>--percent=</option> option.

- The maximum size in megabytes when the logical volume is set
to grow. Specify an integer value here such as <literal>500</literal> (do not
include the unit).
+ Specify the amount by which to grow the logical volume, as a
percentage of the free space in the volume group after any statically-sized logical
volumes are taken into account. This option can not be used together with the
<option>--size=</option> and <option>--grow</option> options.

+ When creating a new logical volume, you must either specify its
size statically using the <option>--size=</option> option, or as a percentage
of remaining free space using the <option>--percent=</option> option. You can
not use both of these options on the same logical volume.
