Hi, I have setup a new Cpanel on Rocky from AWS. Previously had a Cent OS system. Created with 20GB Storage and Increased it to 30GB in AWS. Expanded out the file system, But I'm not sure if it's applied. Sorry, I'm a new business owner and am not familiar with cPanel.

  To extend your LVM, you will require the assistance of a Linux administrator.

  As @kodeslogic said, cPanel doesn't control the partitions on the system. You'd want to speak with your hosting provider to have them adjust the partition size on the system.

  Hi cPRex

  I want to bring some awareness to this issue as I think cPanel hasn't looked into this image and simply left a faulty ami image on aws marketplace - which is probably hurting rocky linux adoption for cPanel.

  https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/prodview-tdbqyortfeam4
  The image you have put on the link here uses a 10GB LVM container which would not auto-expand to the selected disk size -- and this is without doing any partitions changes on the server. 

  I have setup a few cpanel instance using cpanel provided images on AWS in past and literally only this image has the issue. I simply moved on to alma linux image which work as expected but I honestly that with this image, cPanel is trying to push people away from rocky linux - at least on aws platform. 

  This is what I did if you want to try
  - Selected above image from aws marketplace
  - selected 50GB disk during launch
  - I connected to the instance using ssh - it was installing cpanel and the usual stuff 
  - once the installation is done, checked and it shows only 10GB 
  - and it would not expand easily.... afaik all other images would pickup the disk and on disk resize, all we need is just a reboot. 
  
  

  Hope someone will look into this and fix the image.

  Hey there!  I reached out to our team that creates these images and they confirmed we plan to replace this with RockyLinux 9 at some point in the future, which would take care of this issue.
