Extend LVM partition

[NicolaA]

Hello everyone!
Yesterday I upgrade my Plesk Panel from version 11.0.9 to 11.5.30. After this upgrade I reached the 88% of hard disk usage and I would like to extend the partition. The server is a CentOS 6 virtual machine in vmWare environment.

Does anybody know how to correctly extend LVM partition?

Thanks in advance
Simone

I can see there are now free space on your "Volume Groups " and due to that you can NOT increase /dev/mapper/vg_sh3-lv_root Logical Volume, You will have to attach one more disk to your server to increased the disk space partitions
