Here are the steps to follow to extend the /home volume of a standard centos7 based Utixo VPS
- Extend the physical disk via vmware console
- Mount the GPARTED ISO, boot from the ISO and follow instructions to extend the disk
- After partition extension detach the ISO and reboot the system
- Access the VPS via console and login as root
- To view the disk status : df -h take note of the name of the partition you want to extend
- use the command: lvextend -l +100%FREE /dev/cl/home or use the partition name as show in the df -h command
- As we use XFS filesystem the right command is: xfs_growfs /dev/cl/home (or same partition name as previous command)
- After that the partition have been extended
The procedure is only valid for Utixo WHM servers based on centos7
