provided the filesystems are ext.. there is a binary called ext2online
you can use to extend the filesystem..
 
man ext2online should have all the information you need

Hi All, 

 

We have purchased Dell PE server with Red hat installed. 

 

The default volumes are not using all the disk space. 

 

I am able to increase the volume size by lvextend command.

 

How to extend the file system in that volume so that it can use that
space?

 

Here are some more details,

Output of lvs command: there is 37.31 GB free.

 

  VG         #PV #LV #SN Attr   VSize  VFree

  VolGroup00   2   6   0 wz--n- 67.94G 37.31G

 

Output of df command (want to use above extra space in / /usr /home
mounts.

 

Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on

/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00

                       8256952   3087980   4749544  40% /usr

                       4128448    320772   3597964   9% /var

 

Any help is appreciated. 

 

 

Thanks,
