Thanks for that, the field wasn’t mentioned in the man pages for lvs.

sudo lvs -o+metadata_size qubes_dom0/vm-pool

outputs that Msize is 100.00m. Which means that the command I want to run is:

lvextend --poolmetadatasize 300.00m qubes_dom0/vm-pool

@tasket

You might need to free up space in the volgroup before you can lvextend; in that case what I’ve done is to temporarily turn off dom0 swap with swapoff then use lvresize to shrink the swap lv a bit, and finally use mkswap to reformat the swap lv and then swapon -a.

Finally, how do I determine if I must free up space in the volgroup before I can lvextend? I’m extending by 200 megabytes. sudo vgs outputs several gigabytes for VFree. Would I only need to free up space if VFree was below 200m?
