Operation:

  • sudo vgs: ubuntu-vg 1 1 0 wz--n- 462.69g 362.69g
  • df -T / : /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-ubuntu--lv ext4 102626232 24338224 73028744 25% /
  • sudo lvextend -l +100%FREE /dev/ubuntu-vg/ubuntu-lv
  • sudo resize2fs /dev/ubuntu-vg/ubuntu-lv

Never did this before on an encrypted drive. Is this the proper procedure? Obviously a complete image back up is in order, however, are there any gotchas, caveats, pitfalls that I should be aware of before proceeding?

    Do a backup image of the partition first before you run these commands.

    If you decide to use all free space: sudo lvextend -r -l +100%FREE /dev/ubuntu-vg/ubuntu-lv

    Should suffice I’m pretty sure.

      sudo lvextend -r -l +100%FREE /dev/ubuntu-vg/ubuntu-lv

      As I understand (which is limited in this scenario) this command extends the LUKS and then you would have to follow up with sudo resize2fs /dev/ubuntu-vg/ubuntu-lv to extend the file system.
