: The--size
parameter is used to specify the new size for the logical volume. In this case, the value+${120G}
indicates that the logical volume should be increased by 120 gigabytes.--resizefs
: This parameter is used to automatically resize the underlying file system to match the new size of the logical volume. It is optional but it ensures that the file system is adjusted accordingly.${volume_group}/${logical_volume}
: This is the name of the logical volume that should be resized. It consists of two variables,volume_group
