I have a vagrant instance (using VirtualBox), and I'm using the vagrant-disksize plugin to allocate more disk space for it.

However the Ubuntu instance doesn't seem to "see" the extra space.

VirtualBox settings show 20GB virtual and ~6GB actual.

Further inspection of the Ubuntu settings show that only ~6GB are available.

How can I fix this?enter image description here

As the doc of the plugin states

Depending on the guest, you may need to resize the partition and the filesystem from within the guest. At present the plugin only resizes the underlying disk.

You can follow the instructions from this answer for the remaining steps after the virtual disk has been increased

You now need to resize the partition and filesystem as pointed in the documentation. (also mentioned by Frédéric in his answer).

I found it was much easier to use Gparted Live Editor to do the resizing and followed the below steps
