lvm-thin extending confusion

[dew1989]

Linux noob here. I added a new drive within my proxmox run OMV and am struggling with extending the associated lvm-thin.

root@server:~# lvdisplay NAS
  --- Logical volume ---
  LV Name                NAS
  VG Name                NAS

I know I need to utilize the lvextend command, but am struggling with the parameters. Thanks for the help

I'm completely stumped. Should I be using a different command. Here is my output

lvresize -L +1000G NAS/NAS
  Insufficient free space: 256000 extents needed, but only 0 available

Or is there a completely different concept here I'm missing?

the system is telling you the VG does not have free space available. post the output of vgs NAS

This is really a general Linux question & is not Proxmox-specific.

You can really search anywhere on the web or these forums to find your answer.

In principle you need to do 3 things in your case:

1. Create a new PV (Physical Volume) using that new disk.
2. Extend the existing VG (Volume Group) by adding the above created PV to its VG.
3. Finally extend the LV (Logical Volume) using that VG to obtain the extra space available.

my proxmox run OMV

I'm not sure what you mean by this? OMV=Open Media Vault? You have an OMV VM running on Proxmox? Where did you add the drive?
