able to do "live" storage incrase by adding a new volume to the LVM group in the following procedure:
created new virtio volume in the VM from phx-engine fdisk /dev/vdd then: n -> p -> 1 -> enter -> enter -> t -> 8e -> w vgextend jenkins_lvm /dev/vdd1 lvextend /dev/mapper/jenkins_lvm-data -L28G xfs_growfs /dev/mapper/jenkins_lvm-data
I was unable to increase the volume size from the engine, and then increase the partition size(only create a new partition on the same volume with the new increased space in the volume), not sure if that is possible.
You forgot the 1st thing we told you - "don't create partitions on the disk"... Instead the whole disk '/dev/vdX' should be formatted as a PV, then you can grow it from the engine and then 'pvresize' followed by 'lvresize'. -- Barak Korren bkorren@redhat.com RHEV-CI Team
