OK, what you've done is extend the 2nd partition to cover all available space by deleting and recreating it. Now you need to adjust the LVM structures inside that partition to match the new size. All you have to do is this:
The default behaviour for
pvresize is to extend the physical volume to cover the entire device. Afterwards, you should be able to see free space in the volume group when you run
vgdisplay.
You can now extend the LVM logical volume with
lvresize:
Code:
lvresize /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00
Again, the default is to extend the logical volume to use all available space in the volume group, which is what you want.
And finally, you extend the file system on the logical volume. You didn't say which file system you're using (type
mount if you're in doubt), but if it's ext2, ext3 or ext4 the command would be:
Code:
resize2fs /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00
I don't know about other file systems, but you can safely extend a mounted ext2/3/4 file system with
resize2fs.
