I need help. My Main storage drive is full and I haven't been able to figure out how to use my second drive

[warloxian]

I have ran out of storage space. I havce a second drive but I can't seem to figure out how to move or extend to the second drive so I can update and install ceph. My scans are listed below. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Which volume do you want to extend? I'm assuming vmstore?

 

[warloxian]

Yes, VMSTORE is full and I can't do anything with this node at this time

 

[shanreich]

Can you just post the output of this command as well, so I can check the current size of your meta data pool? It would need to be extended as well. Please put the output in code tags.

lvs -a

You should be able to extend the pool like this (assuming you want to use the whole disk):

lvextend -L +1G /dev/vmdata/vmstore_tmeta
lvextend -l +100%FREE /dev/vmdata/vmstore

lvextend -L +1G /dev/vmdata/vmstore_tmeta
lvextend -l +100%FREE /dev/vmdata/vmstore

So I ran the commands. Then I ran apt-get update && apt-get full-upgrade -y and I get this error. I am so sorry as I am still learning Linux and I can't express my thanks enough for your assistance with this issue

please be careful to post correctly.
output of terminal must be in a code tag because important informations are missing moreover posts without code tag it's too hard to read them.
output of "lvs -a" in a first code tag
then output of "df -h" in second code tag.

apt writes its stuff to your root partition, not vmdata. what does
df /
show? you may need to clear up some stuff.

 

[warloxian]

You guys are going to hate my guts, but I am a NEWBY . I have learned a lot about Linux in last year, but I have absolutely no programming experience and I am not sure how to add HTML tags to my post. I have spent the last year self teaching network security and I am just getting started on learning some Python programming. But when I look at what I posted, it looks exactly like what I am copying from my shell. I should have went to school for this because my self teaching methods are not well organized. Linux has been a rabbit hole for me. I start learning something and then find I need to learn something different to learn what I was working on. That keeps going and going and before you know it, I am on a completely different subject and have had to put my original goal at the end of the line. Anyone that's learned Linux on their own probably understands exactly what I am going through

This node is an older Apple with a 256g NVME and a TB hard drive. My ISO's are whats taking that space I can see that. If I could move my ISO's to the other drive? I would like to run a few VM's on this node if possible. My other 4 nodes are all servers. Point me in the right direction and I'll try to figure this out. When you guys hear from me it's when I am the end of my rope and haven't been able to find a working solution.

 

[shanreich]

Yes, that is a problem with your root partition then. You still got some space left on that VG as well, though, so you could run the following commands to add the remaining space to root (~ 9 GB):

lvextend -l +100%FREE /dev/pve/root
resize2fs /dev/pve/root

You will really need to clean up some stuff on your root partition (/) afterward though. Furthermore, you can check space usage with ncdu (install via apt install ncdu).

 

[shanreich]

Btw you can post stuff in code tags by clicking on the Symbol in the text editor that looks like this: </>
This makes it way easier to read the output, take this as an example:

without code tags:
total used free shared buff/cache available
Mem: 3.8Gi 1.7Gi 1.5Gi 48Mi 638Mi 1.9
Swap: 3.9Gi 0B 3.9Gi

with code tags:

               total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:           3.8Gi       1.7Gi       1.5Gi        48Mi       638Mi       1.9Gi
Swap:          3.9Gi          0B       3.9Gi
