+title: Extending LVM partition after disk expansion
+date: 2026-01-17
+---
+
+1. Boot GParted Live as this is best done offline.
+2. GParted may prompt to fix the GPT header due to metadata mismatch about the disk size, select "Fix".
+3. Using GParted program, deactivate the LVM partition.
+4. Resize the LVM partition by dragging the right-arrow to the end.
+5. Click tick ✓ to apply. Resizing should take only a few seconds, if it's not finished within a minute, reboot GParted Live and repeat; this may happen if Steps 2-3 are skipped.
+6. Launch Terminal,
+
+```
+sudo -s
+vgs
+lvs
+```
+
+7. `vgs` may show non-zero VFree value meaning the volume group contains unallocated space. `lvs` lists the volume group and logical volume, the values are used in `lvresize`; Ubuntu defaults to `ubuntu-vg/ubuntu-lv`, the slash is not an _OR_, both values with a slash are required.
+
+```
+lvresize -l +100%FREE --resizefs VG-name/LV-name
+vgs
+```
+
+8. `vgs` should now show zero VFree value.
+9. In GParted program, activate the LVM partition.
+10. Reboot.
