i am using LXD few years and i am glad to use this platform in my testing environment. But few days ago, i couldn't install Microsoft Sql server 2017. The reason was, that i used default ZFS backend. Ok, i checked, that if i need ext4. i have to use LVM. No problem, i created "Volume Group" and i marked to use this group in LXD. But ... First problem, that i saw, that LXD creates logical volumes not more, than 10GB.
After this command,
lxc init ubuntu:16.04 container2
i received this volume:
``` Disk /dev/mapper/mainVG-containers_container2: 10 GiB, 10737418240 bytes, 20971520 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 65536 bytes / 65536 bytes
```
I tried to add size via lvextend
lvextend -L +10G /dev/mapper/mainVG-containers_container2, but i received following error:
Logical volume containers_container2 not found in volume group mainVG
Ok, i tried to create logical volume without LXD.
I made
lvcreate -n lv_data1 --size 12G mainVG
And i received
Disk /dev/mapper/mainVG-lv_data1: 12 GiB, 12884901888 bytes, 25165824 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes
And i made
lvextend -L +10G /dev/mapper/mainVG-lv_data1
Size of logical volume mainVG/lv_data1 changed from 12.00 GiB (3072 extents) to 22.00 GiB (5632 extents).
Logical volume mainVG/lv_data1 successfully resized.
How you can see, in this case i can succesfully resize my logical volume.
Maybe i don't know something ? Maybe i have to add something in some security group ? Can you help me please ? If you know other way to resize my Logical Volume, i will glad to hear it from you. Thanks
