The file system is what the OS sees, so adding more disk does not automatically increase the filesystem. If its a native ext4 linux partition then you should be able to do a resizefs, if its a PV in an LVM group then you will need to do a pzresize. Do lots of research and backup all the data first as any errors and you could loose the lot.
