          after it reboots run the lvextend command again.

                    You can try it two ways:

                    lvextend -r -l +90%FREE /dev/mapper/vol_data1-lv_data
                    
                    lvextend -r -l +102300 /dev/mapper/vol_data1-lv_data
                    

                    I hardly ever use the %FREE part and almost always use the extents instead. I figured the percentages took into account growing not just a percent of actual usage.

                      Le - Sigh.. And this is where I have to laugh - and I know you'll laugh,.. and @scottalanmiller will laugh..@JaredBusch will do something different...

                      lvextend -r -l 90%Free /dev/mapper/vol_data1-lv_data
                      

                      is totaly different than the correct one

                      lvextend -r -l +90%Free /dev/mapper/vol_data1-lv_data

                        Did you actually fill up 400GB?

                        Are you running maintenance?

                        If not, then versions and such will chew up the free space.

                        By default, this is set to AJAX. This is perfectly workable as long as your users are actually using the web interface. If you are only using the sync client, then you will run into issues with maintenance not being ran.

                        The site this image was taken from is 100% sync client. No one uses the web interface. Because of that I had to setup a cron job. because version history was eating all the storage space.

                          Open a crontab for the apache user

                          crontab -u apache -e
                          
                          */15 * * * * php -f /var/www/html/nextcloud/cron.php
