fdisk vs. vgdisplay - increase size of VG

Question

After getting error messages that I was running out of disk space, I looked at the disks and found that the output from fdisk (127.101 GiB) did not coincide with the output from vgdisplay (57.43 GiB).

How can I allocate the full disk space to the VG?

Anyone some suggestions?

Please help.

Thank you!

Output fdisk -l

Disk /dev/mapper/luks-1d8a72d1-87d4-4c04-8a21-20a63699b4b8: 127.101 GiB, 137422176256 bytes, 268402688 sectors

Please add here output of pvs and lsblk. Did you resize your disk and/or the LUKS device recently? — Vojtech Trefny, Jan 21 '23 at 12:49
if a simple pvresize does not fix it, please post readable output... — frostschutz, Jan 21 '23 at 13:03
Please edit your post to show the commands and the output as a code block. — doneal24, Jan 21 '23 at 13:58

Thank you for responding. I ended up reinstalling the whole system from scratch, and the problem has been solved. Something was wrong on the initial installation, but unfortunately I´ll never discover it. Anyway, thank you very much for the suggestions and support!
