You can manually resize the root partition safely by extending lvm partition . /dev/sda is your root partition right and what is this /dev/vda?

Hi, Andrija, Here is the result: ubuntu@node100GB:~$ sudo fdisk -l Disk /dev/vda: 107.4 GB, 107374182400 bytes 16 heads, 63 sectors/track, 208050 cylinders, total 209715200 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x00000000 Disk /dev/vda doesn't contain a valid partition table Disk /dev/sda: 10.7 GB, 10737418240 bytes 4 heads, 32 sectors/track, 163840 cylinders, total 20971520 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x000b2a28 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 2048 20971519 10484736 83 Linux Seems the disk space is hidden in /dev/vda, so should I format it and mount it in order to use that space?
