I installed ubuntu server using LVM partitioning on a 1 TB hard disk. However, after installation, i can only see 10 Gig space
here is the fidsk output
`

You have new mail in /var/mail/root
and df -h output

any way to increase this space without reisntalling?
You apparently only allocated 10gb to your root fs. You can use pvs
to see how much space lvm has allocated to volumes, and how much it has left, and lvextend
to increase the size of a logical volume ( does not need to be unmounted ). After increasing the size of the logical volume, you will need to tell the fs to use the new space. Assuming you are using ext[234], you can do this with resize2fs
, which also can expand without unmounting.
sudo lvextend -L 20g system/root
sudo resize2fs /dev/mapper/system-root
Note that expanding the volume to use ALL of the unallocated space may not be such a great idea, since you won't have any left to add new volumes later, should you choose to do so, or make use of lvm snapshots. You can reduce the size of the volume later to free up some space, but that requires the fs to be unmounted, thus you will need to boot the server from some other medium.
