How to append free space from LVM volume?
I am running out of space on a LVM volume and am wondering where 10G are allocated:
df -h
/dev/mapper/vg0-staging 20G 19G 177M 100% /mnt/staging
lvs
staging vg0 -wi-ao---- 30.00g
Is there a way to append the free space and increase the partition to the full size of the volume while keeping the data intact?
You have to resize the filesystem inside vg0/staging volume:
- if it is an XFS filesystem, you can resize it with
xfs_growfs /mnt/staging - if it is an EXT4 filesystem, you can resize it with
resize2fs /dev/mapper/vg0-staging
