I would strongly recommend not using lvextend, and instead use lvresize -r. I suspect the underlying LVM logical volume is already increased, but the file system on top is not, and thus you do not see the space. Perhaps 'lvresize -r -L+1M /dev/vg_system/var' work better. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen
