lvextend extends the lvm partition but it doesn't change the size of the filesystem. For ext[23] file systems the recommended way to resize a partition is to unmount the partition and use e2fsadm. You don't say what your filesystem type is but if it's ext[23] you need to unmount the partition, run e2fsck on the partition and then resize it with resize2fs (you could also use ext2resize or even ext2online but you probably don't have those tools). If the filesystem type is not ext[23] you need to use the appropriate resizing tool. -- Ian -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
