My root partition size is not enough for me and should be increased in order to allow me adding some new application and services (e.g. mongodb). I got some more free space and I can see it when I type print free in the GNU parted tool:
Number Start End Size Type File system Flags
32.3kB 1049kB 1016kB Free Space
1 1049kB 256MB 255MB primary ext2 boot
256MB 257MB 1048kB Free Space
2 257MB 8589MB 8332MB extended
5 257MB 8589MB 8332MB logical lvm
8589MB 17.2GB 8591MB Free Space
My space partiotning looks like:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root 3.7G 2.6G 923M 74% /
none 4.0K 0 4.0K 0% /sys/fs/cgroup
udev 2.0G 4.0K 2.0G 1% /dev
tmpfs 396M 520K 395M 1% /run
none 5.0M 0 5.0M 0% /run/lock
none 2.0G 0 2.0G 0% /run/shm
none 100M 0 100M 0% /run/user
/dev/sda1 236M 66M 158M 30% /boot
(df -h in the command line)
Any easy and quick way to allocate more space to my root partition? ( I guess it's /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root)
