Issue/Introduction

We followed https://knowledge.broadcom.com/external/article?articleId=42624 and we're still not able to increase the size of the volumes.

Environment

API  Gateway: 9.4

Resolution

If additional space has been added to /dev/sda and not /dev/sdb, do the following:

1. Take a snapshot of your VM
2. Run the following command (using the number of GBs you want to allocate): 
         lvextend --size +[SIZE]G [LOCATION] -r
   ex: lvextend --size +20G /dev/mapper/vg00-lv_opt -r
3. Run the df -h command to confirm the reallocation
4. Reboot the node
5. Run the df -h command to confirm the reallocation
