Resize DRBD (online)

 pvresize /dev/drbd6

Resize the LVM partition on DRBD

• this is a clusters volume group - changes will propagate on both

lvresize -L+2GB /dev/drbd_hopmon/hopmon 
  Extending logical volume hopmon to 10.00 GiB
  Logical volume hopmon successfully resized

Shutdown/Start KVM Host

• shutdown the guest, then start the guest (not a reboot)

this will allow the KVM guest to notice the PV size change

Resize GUEST lvm disk

The kernel still uses the old table. The new table will be used at

• You can try to run 'partprobe' to re-read the disk partitions.. but it may not work
• If partprobe fails you will have to reboot to allow the partition size to be apply. You can reboot this time.
