Seems like I should just be able to extend LVM across the whole drive, but I can't find a way to do it...

LVM is across the whole drive, that's not the issue.

Seems like / was only setup for 4GB... Why?

Probably to leave room for other things to be configured

So I just need to extend the file system?

scottalanmiller

@Curtis Run this...

lvresize -l +100%FREE /dev/ubuntu-vg/ubuntu-lv

No, the volume Then the filesystem.

What kind of filesystem is it? EXT4? XFS?

Whatever the default for a netinstall is. Is there a command to check?

@Curtis Run this...

lvresize -l +100%FREE /dev/ubuntu-vg/ubuntu-lv

user@server:~$ sudo lvresize -l +100%FREE /dev/ubuntu-vg/ubuntu-lv
sudo: unable to resolve host server: Resource temporarily unavailable

/etc/lvm/archive/.lvm_server_2656_1676534144: write error failed: No space left on device

Curtis

Tried as root, and got this:

/etc/lvm/archive/.lvm_server_2674_604287443: write error failed: No space left on device

The error tells you exactly why it's failing. Clean up some space, /var/log/ would be a good place to start. Then re-run that command.

Would this work?

find /var/log -type f -delete

I wouldn't do that. Just cd into the directory and remove anything that is zipped.

Curtis

root@server:/var# lvresize -l +100%FREE /dev/ubuntu-vg/ubuntu-lv
Size of logical volume ubuntu-vg/ubuntu-lv changed from 4.00 GiB (1024 extents) to <99.00 GiB (25343 extents).
Logical volume ubuntu-vg/ubuntu-lv successfully resized.

Now what?

@Curtis said in Ubuntu 18.04 Space Issue:

Now what?

df -h

wirestyle22

@Curtis As you are doing this man each command so you understand what is occuring

Example: man df

marcinozga

Show the output of

mount

Curtis

@DustinB3403

I still need to resize the file system I believe?

Curtis

Seems like I should run:

resize2fs /dev/ubuntu-vg/ubuntu-lv

?

marcinozga

@Curtis it depends on filesystem. That's why I asked for output of mount command.
