Because of wearout of over 90% I changed the disk sda (128GB) of proxmox host to a new disk (256GB) and transferred the data of the old disk to the new disk.
How can I increase the LVM (/dev/sda3) disk space?

You can search any Debian site (or these forums) on the procedure you need.

Basically the steps involved:

  1. Increase the disk partition - to use the entire space.
  2. Increase the PV (Physical volume).
  3. Increase the LV (Logical volume).
  4. Resize the FS (File system).
Make sure you have full backups - before doing such a procedure!
