If you issue lsblk can you see the new resized volume ?
If not, do a sudo growpart /dev/volume_to_grow 1
If already resized you may need to resize the filesystem with the usual linux commands (resize2fs if ext4, xfs_growfs if xfs)
rebooting the EC2 instance will start afresh.
You will need to resize the file system after expanding the EBS volume. Please follow these instructions https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ebs/latest/userguide/recognize-expanded-volume-linux.html
The EBS "modify" Elastic Volume feature only expand the volume at block level; in order to extend also the filesystem(s) on top of it you should follow the steps outlined in our documentation here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ebs/latest/userguide/recognize-expanded-volume-linux.html
