Ok, I hope I can explain this correctly. I am running ubuntu server on proxmox. Unbuntu is running my docker instance. My LVM i originally assigned it is full and I added more storage in proxmox thinking it would just expand the LVM, it didn't. I can see the increase in disk size, but I can't figure out how to make the LVM larger. fdisk vgdisplay As you can /dev/sda has a ton of space that I added in proxmox to that vm. I would like to be to "transfer" that space over to /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-ubuntu--lv lvm. If anyone has any guidance on how to do it, I would very grateful.

I've tried to follow this guide but ended up corrupting the server and had to restore from backup.

It looks like /dev/sda already has a configuration and the root file system,including the boot configuration.

You need to move all of that to the lvm, it's a risky operation, but very well described here https://www.system-rescue.org/lvm-guide-en/Moving-the-linux-rootfs-to-an-LVM-volume/
