Hi Wolfgang, I was finally able to fix it. Took me way too long to figure this one out.
The issue was that a minimal amount of space is required to execute an lvextent of /dev/vg_system/root. In my case the space was just not big enough. I therefore temporarily moved some files out of /etc/debian-edu/www/. Then I rebooted and the two commands (lvextend and resize2fs) executed nicely. Thanks for your hints and assistance! :) > On Fri, Dec 27, 2019 at 10:25:14AM +0100, Roman Meier wrote: >> That was the first thing I did. :) >> >> Didn't help me tho. :( > >> >> vgdisplay show this: >> >> Free PE / Size 204547 / 799.01 GiB >> >> > /dev/mapper/vg_system-root 2108840 2092452 0 100% >> / >> >> > /dev/mapper/vg_system-usr 15417224 14836932 0 100% >> >> /usr >> >> > >> >> > I tried to increase the size using lvextend but it gives me a no >> space >> >> > left on device. > > I'm just curious how you used lvextend. > > As an example (like the one in the manual) this should add 500 MiB to /: > lvextend -L+500M /dev/vg_system/root > > Then resize it: > resize2fs /dev/vg_system/root > > Wolfgang >
