Hi Imran, Can you elaborate – you say your template had a 5GB root disk. Did you resize this, or did you add a disk?
If you resized it then all you need to do is use your LVM and filesystem tools to expand your partition.

The issue is that the root LVM partition inside the new VM instance still shows 5GB . The device size (/dev/vda) however shows 300GB. The question is what is the best strategy to resize the root LVM partition so that I could use all 300G.
