In this article, we will show you the Centos 7 Disk Expansion process.

1-First, we connect to our server. After connecting, we find out how much space we have on our disk by typing the df -h code.

 

2-As you can see in the screenshot above, we have 17GB of Storage space. Copy and paste ALL the codes we give below.

 

parted /dev/sda --script mkpart primary $(parted /dev/sda print | grep lvm | awk '{print $3}') 100%
pvcreate /dev/sda3
vgextend cl /dev/sda3
lvextend /dev/cl/root /dev/sda3
xfs_growfs /dev/cl/root

Copy and paste all the codes above.

 

 

As you can see, the disk capacity increased from 17 to 38. Thanks to these codes, we have easily expanded our disk.
