[SOLVED] VM is not showing all disk space

[java.we]

Greetings everyone, as the title says, I created a VM with Ubuntu. Initially, I thought it was only 15 GB. Later, I expanded it to 92 GB, but it's currently only showing 30 GB.

I'm attaching screenshots of some commands to give you an idea.




lsblk


pvs


vgdisplay


lvdisplay:

This is the disk and partition information.

This is what it shows in Beszel information



Thanks in advance.

Best regards.

Did you resize the partition?

Did you resize the partition?

Yes

Please don't needlessly quote things, especially not in full. The message you're quoting is directly above yours. It's redundant and just noise.

I don't think you did

Run cfdisk /dev/sda and resize the sda3 partition. Confirm and write. Then run pvresize /dev/sda3 and lvresize -r -l +100%FREE ubuntu-vg/ubuntu-lv.

Yes

Can you show the command/s used?

From your lsblk output above - we can see that the total drive space on /dev/sda is 92G but that only ~32G is used in the three partitions. So at present it appears that the system is not aware of you having extended that sda3 partition.

Your issue is not a Proxmox issue per se, but rather a general Linux/Ubuntu one of extending Part/PV/VG/LV. There are many articles online available for this - including ones discussing virtual disks - as yours.

Your issue may also be compounded by the fact you are doing this on an online disk (possibly also without rebooting the VM?).

Here is a decent article on the subject.

One more tip - make sure you have a complete & restorable backup of that VM if you value your data - before doing such manipulations on it's virtual disk/s.

This already solved the problem, thanks for taking the time and helping me.

Thanks for the info and advice. I'll keep it in mind when I need to expand my disk space.

Best regards.
