Hard disk is 2 raid 137 Gig but User has only 16 gig available hard disk space.

Asked by Aaron Warby

I am running our of memory for my user on Ubuntu 16.04 server. My hard disk is 137 Gig but the user only has 16 Gig available space. I checked the partition with G-parted and found that 137 Gig was available for use on the partition. Below is the memory readout from the terminal.

How do I increase the users allotted memory?

If I am using LVM then I am not intending to.

But I see from a few of these read outs that I am. How do I get rid of that?
