nope..
1. -t changes the factor, allowing more/less max PPs per PV (ie..the
1016/2032/etc rule)it does not shrink PP size
2. PP size is fixed for VG, not PV.

backup and restore

Chvg -t but I don't think you can shrink a pp on the fly.

Maybe bring in a third PV which is set to 16MB, mirror it, and then
recreate the old PV's one at a time.

You may have to restore your rootvg from a mksysb which you set up to be
16MB??

Any ideas how I can change the PP size of rootvg?
Is is now 32 and would like to make it 16 MB.
