Increase disk space in centos7 root directory

1. Questions

I created a VMware virtual machine to install OpenStack Kolla. Since only 8G of space was allocated to the root directory when the virtual machine was created, it was obviously not enough for later use and I wanted to expand 10G of space.

[root@kolla-queens ~]# fdisk -l

Disk /dev/sda: 21.5 GB, 21474836480 bytes, 41943040 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes

/dev/sda2        20971520    41943039    10485760   83  Linux

Disk /dev/mapper/centos-root: 8585 MB, 8585740288 bytes, 16769024 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes

I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
......

2. Solution

Since the /dev/sda1 partition is of type LVM, it can be extended

First, add a 10G hard drive to the virtual machine and restart it

You see that a disk/dev/sdb already exists, size 10.7 GB

[root@kolla-queens ~]# fdisk -l

Create partition/dev/sdb, note that 8e is also the LVM type

Extend VG centos

[root@kolla-queens ~]# vgextend centos /dev/sdb1
  Volume group "centos" successfully extended

Extend LV/dev/centos/root

[root@kolla-queens ~]# lvextend /dev/centos/root /dev/sdb1
  Size of logical volume centos/root changed from <8.00 GiB (2047 extents) to 17.99 GiB (4606 extents).
  Logical volume centos/root successfully resized.

If your system is using an XFS file system, you need to run the following commands:

xfs_growfs /dev/centos/root

If the system is not using an XFS file system, you need to run the following command:

resize2fs /dev/centos/root

I am the xfs file system
So run

[root@kolla-queens ~]# xfs_growfs /dev/centos/root
