There is a server I'm responsible for that is showing a drive (full) and much smaller than the drive should be. My knowledge of LVM is not deep enough to see why. I could use some help from a good fresh set of eyes because I've been scratching (and banging) my head on this.
I have a Logical Volume /dev/sdrive/shared which is 352 GB. My OS, Ubuntu 14.04.01, seems to only think /dev/mapper/sdrive-shared is 126GB. I don't know what I screwed up or did wrong to cause this or how to fix it. Below I'm including the output of what commands I know to investigate the problem. I don't see where it's getting the 126GB from though.
Some things seem like errors to me (like fdisk complaining about a partition table, but parted showing fine) but searching some forums say this is expected behavior when it comes to LVM. Again, my knowledge is too weak to diagnose and I am grasping at straws and appreciate any help.
