It sounds as if the growth of the LV wasn't propagated to disk, which is bad news.

But virtual storage does give you new ways of shooting yourself in the foot, so there may well be missing safety-nets in some of the tools surrounding Xen. We'd need to work out what went wrong first here to determine how best to guard against it.
