Hi. If I can see correctly, you set the VM disk as 100 GB, but your local-lvm is only 57 GB?
How much data does the VM contain?
If more than 57 GB, some of it is probably damaged.
If less than 57 GB, you have a few options.
a) If you don't care about the VM and its data, you can delete the VM and create the VM from scratch, this time setting a disk smaller than 57 GB.
b) If you want the data but don't care about the VM, you can copy the data to some other disk, delete the VM, create a new one with a smaller disk and copy the data back.
c) if you want to keep the data and the VM, you can boot the VM from an image of some "live CD" like SystemRescue or Gparted(?) and shrink the VM's disk.
When b) or c), make a backup anyway

to be honest, i forgot what i have set for this vm quite sometime ago, i still need the files inside, mostly they are the docker compose file that i need. If i am going to do option b or c, can you guide me how to do it as well?Hi. If I can see correctly, you set the VM disk as 100 GB, but your local-lvm is only 57 GB?
