Proxmox - Increase LVM size

[bheaven87]

Hi,

I'm currently running Proxmox on a Dell T440 with an H730.

I added an additional 4x 18TBs and increased the array to utilize the space. So overall have 8x 18TBs in a RAID 10.

The previous array size was 36TB and has now increased to 72TB

Screenshots are attached and need some guidance on how I now increase my LVM to use this free space.

Thanks,

Ben

Can you post the output of the following commands? (please wrap the output in CODE-Tags for easier readability)

fdisk -l /dev/sda
pvs
lvs

Here you go:

root@proxmox:~# fdisk -l /dev/sda

Disk /dev/sda: 65.48 TiB, 71998684266496 bytes, 140622430208 sectors

Disk model: PERC H730 Adp 

Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes

Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes

I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes

Thanks!

In order to use the newly available space it should be sufficient to run:

pvresize /dev/sda

Thank you very much for your help.

Seems to have done the job.
