Subject: [bristol] LVM - free space not altering
Message-ID: <56F11F40.9060608@virginmedia.com>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed
Hi,
I have fc23 with lvm on my laptop and was investigating some problems
running wordpress locally and found I had my /home almost full.
This prompted the following:
What happens when /home gets full!, does it fail or start to use "home"
on my root LV?
As my /home was full I deleted about 2GB from my Download directory BUT
the free space did not alter!
I expanded the LV by a few GB's and removed more old iso's from my
"Download" directory. but again I get no change in my free space.
Any ideas why this is happening?
FYI:
lvm> pvscan
PV /dev/sda3 VG fedora_laptop lvm2 [97.65 GiB / 27.13 GiB free]
PV /dev/sda5 VG fedora lvm2 [70.46 GiB / 8.46 GiB free]
Total: 2 [168.11 GiB] / in use: 2 [168.11 GiB] / in no VG: 0 [0 ]
lvm> vgscan
Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while...

Hello Peter,
It can take a little time for free space to show up in df output, also
be aware of rounding issues causing the values
not to change as much as you might expect.
You will need to resize the filesystem after the LV to see the extra
space you just made available to it, try using resize2fs
Cheers
Amias

OK as I remember gparted cannot format lvm.
