Expand FreePBX Disk Hosted on Vultr

This tutorial will help you to expand the storage disk of freepbx hosted on Vutr 

We have an existing $5 instance and upgraded to $10 instance

Disk Space after upgrading the instance to next higher plan.

As you noticed there is noticed there is no changes on Size and Available Storage.

On your Vultr instance, attach the GParted ISO (x86)

Boot the instance from GParted ISO and view the instance using vultr console

Expand partition using all the unallocated space then “Apply” the changes.

Once applied, Restart the vultr instance.

SSH to vultr instance and execute the ff. commands

vgs  – shows the free space available

lvextend /dev/mapper/SangomaVG-root -L +30G

xfs_growfs /dev/mapper/SangomaVG-root -d  – expand to fill the partition

df -h – to verify the new disk size

That’s it pansit. Thank you.
