Bootdisk size not showing in Summary and VM acts as if the disk is full (no upgrades allowed)

[marcor78]

As per the title.... I don't know exactly when it occurred, but I noticed that my 2 VMs are not showing Bootdisk size in Summary and they behave as the disk is full (when I believe it is not). Therefore no upgrades are possible (impossible to write on the disk as it seems full). Here are a snapshot of VM summary and my pveversion.
How can I debug this issue?

As I see it your PVE is reporting a bootdisk size in the summary. I see an 8 GiB bootdisk in the provided screen capture.

Are you expecting a different size? Without knowing the guest OS all I can suggest is you verify the disk and its usage within the guest.

Sorry, I should have explained better: the bootdisk size is correct, I simply don't see usage % anymore. And if I try to make upgrades within the guest it says "not enough space in disk", but this is not true, according to lvs -a as following (the disk is vm-114-disk-0):

Im not sure if VMs ever showed disk usage? I am on PVE v6.4 and do not see my virtual machines' bootdisk usage from within PVE -- that is with or without the guest tools installed within the VM. Containers, on the other hand, will show that info in PVE.

What is the guest OS in that VM?
All of those disks are fairly filled. Check the usage from within the VM.
That disk may partitioned and space used differently than you expect.

The guest OS is Debian Buster and there's Docker installed on it.
This is the df command within the VM:

I also resized the disk adding 2 more GB. It is now 10GB instead of 8GB, but nothing changes and if I run "df" after resizing the result is still the same as before.... I really don't know where this space has gone.... it seems like the VM is not able to properly read the space available?
