Is it possible for you to keep the backup for now? If so run the following commands: 1) Keep the backup # mv /var/lib/libvirt/images/fedora21.qcow2 /var/lib/libvirt/images/fedora21.qcow2.orig 2) Copy the resized qcow2 from thumb drive to /var/lib/libvirt/images/fedora21.qcow2 3) Boot up the VM and provide the following output: # fdisk -l # pvdisplay # lvdisplay # vgdisplay
Once this info is provided we can advise on how to expand the filesystem.
