    Increase LVM/vg etc.


    Hi,

    Need help in increasing my LVM (I think).
    It's a vmware VM. Increased disk size and increased partition size with gparted.

    here is fdisk -l:

    Code:
    root#IcingaProd:~# fdisk -l
     
    Disk /dev/sda: 64.4 GB, 64424509440 bytes
    255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 7832 cylinders, total 125829120 sectors
    Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
    Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
    I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
    Disk identifier: 0x000b94e9

      Block device           252:1
    Saw many posts but none fits exactly and deleting partitions sound scary to me so I want to make sure.

    Thanks
