Need Help expanding EVE-NG bare-metal volume?

Before posting something, READ the changelog, WATCH the videos, howto and provide following:
Your install is: Bare metal, ESXi, what CPU model, RAM, HD, what EVE version you have, output of the uname -a and any other info that might help us faster.

Need Help expanding EVE-NG bare-metal volume?

Post by SheltonCoolio » Mon Jul 05, 2021 7:34 am

Hi,

i have EVE-NG Pro and it is installed on /dev/sdb and has 3 partitions.
sdb 8:16 0 238.5G 0 disk
├─sdb1 8:17 0 512M 0 part /boot/efi
├─sdb2 8:18 0 1G 0 part /boot
└─sdb3 8:19 0 237G 0 part
└─ubuntu--vg-ubuntu--lv 253:0 0 118.5G 0 lvm /


what i dont understand is why is EVE-NG not utilizing the whole disk? it is now full and I cant do anything.

so my question is how to expand the current disk since it's only utilizing 50% of the 256Gb SSD and also, how to free up space? I dont want to delete any labs.

Thanks for the Help.
