I VM Player running a linux guest and I was wanting to know how do I expand the disk? In the VM player I gave more disk space but I am not sure how to mount/expand/connect the new disk space to the system.

My old disk space was 14GB

[root@localhost ~]# df -h /
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root
                       14G  4.5G  8.2G  36% /

Then I expanded it and now I see sda2 which is the new space?

[root@localhost ~]# fdisk -l

Do I need to mount the new space first?

EDIT: So after trying pvcreate/vgextend nothing has so far worked. I'm guessing the new disk space added from VM Player is not showing up?
