Issues with LVM partition size in Server 13.04
- by Michael
I am new to ubuntu and a little confused about how hard drive partitions and LVM works. I remember setting up Ubuntu server 13.04 and telling to to use 1TB of a 3TB server. Well I have maxed that out with blu-ray rips and want the rest of the drive for space.
On log-in it says:
System load: 2.24 Processes: 179
Usage of /: 88.7% of 912.89GB Users logged in: 0
Memory usage: 6% IP address for p5p1: 192.168.0.100
Swap usage: 0%
=> / is using 88.7% of 912.89GB

And fdisk /dev/sda -l outputs:

Partition 1 does not start on physical sector boundary.
I just don't know what to make of all this and am not sure how I can make it use all 2.73TBs.
Thanks in advance for any help.
EDIT--
Yes I did make changes to the LVM Config, but it didnt do anything.
