Hi,

I am using
qemu-img resize vm-103-disk-1.raw +100G
It's OK. (image resized)

But, step 2 error.

lvresize -L+1G /dev/xxxxxx/diskimage (example command)

I am using
lvresize -L+100G /dev/vm-103-disk-1.raw/diskimage
Volume group "vm-103-disk-1.raw" not found

What is problem?
 
If you read my guide in the forum there is an updated guide here

http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Resizing_disks

The lvresize command should only used if you use a LVM storage backend instead of files (which you use).

But you would need to resize the partitions and filesystems in the guest system now.

Best regards
 
You should NOT use it. You have already resized your disk.

It is only used IF
"In case of a remote disk on LVM storage " - in that case xxx is btw the lvm volumegroup name.

with df -h 100 GB

Click to expand...
and resize partition 2 before to use the whole disk (and restart the VM because the kernel use the old partition due the vg on the partition).
