Solved Storage Node Disk Storage not showing extended volume

[HSD3Tech]

I have a FOG (Ver. 1.3.0-RC-11) VM that I recently extended the volume through Gparted and it’s showing (in System Settings>Details>Overview) that it has the correct Disk amount (after I added/extended the volume) but it’s not showing under Storage Node Disk Usage (FOG - Dashboard) that I have more free. Am I missing another step I need to perform? I’ve Restarted/Re-set a few time, but same results. Any help/guidance would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance! Seth

@george1421 Thanks for the info george1421! I’ll give it a try! Thanks again!

@hsd3tech I think I was able to do that with gparted many moons ago. From a live boot CD and command line you would use extend2fs command. I guess with gparted questions Google is your friend.

@george1421 Thanks, it is currently booted onto GParted (ISO on VM CD/DVD). Now that I am on Gparted, what next? I extended the Volume successfully, but now I need to grow the filesystem to match? How do I do that?

@hsd3tech You might need to boot from a gparted live disk (or boot with something like puppy linux that has gparted built in), because you can’t change a mounted file system.

@george1421 I can’t see where GParted would be able extend the volume.

@sebastian-roth I forgot to answer your second question: I didn’t knowingly “grow the filesystem” so, I’m guessing that’s where the problem is?

[george1421]

@hsd3tech will gparted allow you to extend your file system to fill /dev/sda1?

@george1421 Sorry for the late response. I’m not getting notifications through email anymore (will have to check that issue out).

This is the screenshot of df -h

@HSD3Tech Can you please post a picture of the gparted screen? Did you grow the filesystem as well?

[george1421]

what does df -h show you on disk usage?
