首先說（shuō）明一下情（qíng）況，在VmWare上建立了一個Linux 虛擬機，當時硬盤隻分配了20G用著用（yòng）著發現硬盤不夠了需要擴展。

1.在VMware中將硬盤擴展到40G（這個鼠標點點就好了） 2.輸入（rù）fdisk /dev/sda看（kàn）看硬盤（pán）有沒有變大
[root@localhost ~]# fdisk /dev/sda
The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 5221.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
   (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)
Command (m for help): p
Disk /dev/sda: 42.9 GB, 42949672960 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 5221 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1   *           1          13      104391   83  Linux
/dev/sda2              14        2610    20860402+  8e  Linux LVM
這裏我們發現一共有5221cylinders，可（kě）是（shì）結束（shù）卻在2610cylinders，這說明硬盤有空餘，說明硬盤擴展成功（gōng）。
3.新建分區
[root@localhost ~]# fdisk /dev/sda
The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 5221.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
   (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)
Command (m for help): n //創建一個分（fèn）區（卷）
Command action //問你是主（zhǔ）分區（qū）還是擴展分區，我們輸入p代（dài）表主（zhǔ）分區
   e   extended
   p   primary partition (1-4)
p
Partition number (1-4): 3 //問你是第幾個分區，我這裏前麵有兩個分區了，輸入3表示建立（lì）第三個分區
First cylinder (2611-5221, default 2611):  //問你分區從哪個cylinder開始，保持默認
Using default value 2611
Last cylinder or +size or +sizeM or +sizeK (2611-5221, default 5221):
Using default value 5221 //問你分區在哪個cylinder結束，我（wǒ）們輸入回車，表示硬盤的最後一個cylinder
Command (m for help): t //輸入t我們修改剛剛建立的（de）分區格式
Partition number (1-4): 3 //問（wèn）我（wǒ）們改哪個分區，輸入3改第三個
Hex code (type L to list codes): 8e //改成什麽格式的，輸入8e，表示Linux LVM格式
Changed system type of partition 3 to 8e (Linux LVM)
Command (m for help): p  //輸入p查看修改以後的狀態
Disk /dev/sda: 42.9 GB, 42949672960 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 5221 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1   *           1          13      104391   83  Linux
/dev/sda2              14        2610    20860402+  8e  Linux LVM
/dev/sda3            2611        5221    20972857+  8e  Linux LVM
Command (m for help): w //輸入w保（bǎo）存，這裏可（kě）能要求（qiú）重啟
4.對新建的分區格式化，輸（shū）入#mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda3
[root@localhost ~]# mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda3
mke2fs 1.39 (29-May-2006)
warning: 334 blocks unused.

5.創建一個PV，輸入#pvcreate /dev/sda3
[root@localhost ~]# pvcreate /dev/sda3
  Physical volume "/dev/sda3" successfully created
6.將建立好的PV加入到現有的VG中，輸入#vgextend VolGroup00 /dev/sda3 （注（zhù）意這裏第二個參數為VG的名字）
[root@localhost ~]# vgextend VolGroup00 /dev/sda3
  Volume group "VolGroup00" successfully extended
7.擴展LV，輸入#lvextend -L +20G /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
[root@localhost ~]# lvextend -L +20G /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
  Extending logical volume LogVol00 to 35.94 GB
  Logical volume LogVol00 successfully resized
8.從新識別一下LV的容量，輸入#resize2fs /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
[root@localhost ~]# resize2fs /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
resize2fs 1.39 (29-May-2006)
Filesystem at /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 is mounted on /; on-line resizing required
Performing an on-line resize of /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 to 9420800 (4k) blocks.
The filesystem on /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 is now 9420800 blocks long.

9.至此擴展就已經成功（gōng）了，你可以輸入df -l查（chá）看新的容量
[root@localhost ~]# df -l
