Why the Extended storage space is not visible for EC2 instance in SSH

0

I have a Ubuntu EC2 instance with an EBS volume of 8 GB. I have modified the volume to 16 GB in the AWS console. When I SSH it and check it using the df -h command, It is still showing as 8 GB. Does anyone know the problem?

Hello.

After changing the EBS size from the management console, you need to configure the settings from the OS side using the steps in the document below.
This step will expand the volume.
