Title: Trouble extending file system with LVM

I am running a RedHat 8 with lvm package 1.0.3-9 Anyway I have run out of space in one of my filesystems. I attempted to extend it using the command:

/sbin/lvextend -L +100 /dev/Volume00/LogVol01

The lvextend command does not report an error, in fact it reports that it has extended the filesystem. The df command however does not show that the filesystem size has been changed, and I can not use the additional space. I conclude that df reports the true state of the system.

If I run the lvdisplay command on the logical volume, it shows the logical size has increased.

I used rpm to verify the packed, and no discrepancies were reported.

I have done this before without trouble, I don't know why it won't work now? Any ideas?


PS. I will apologize in advance for this mail being in HTML format, apparently the exchange server insists, and it is not within my control to change it.
