Increasing storage on Ubuntu VM

[Damien Hull]

Here's what I would like to do.
1. Increase the size of the root partition using LVM

Here's what I have
1. Ubuntu 14.04 Server
2. ESXi 5.5
3. SAN
4. Started with 4GB of storage and expanded that to 10GB
6. Used the ESXi tools to increase the VMFS - all 10GB are used
7. Increased the drive size on the virtual machine settings - Thin
provisioned

As far as I can tell everything should be working. Here's my problem.
1. Ubuntu doesn't see the physical size of the new drive
2. pvresize, pvscan, pvs are all reporting the old drive size of 4GB


How do I get Ubunut to see the new physical drive size so I can increase
the size of my root file system?

Thanks!
