      If you don't have enogh space on your virtual machine you can ask for more.
      After a request has been made an administrator can extend your HDD.
      If the request is granted you have to manually rescan
      and extend a logical volume on your machine to acquire the extra space.
      To do so you need root access/administrator rights.

        You can check how much free space is left on your machine
        (on Debian based distributions like Ubuntu) with the
        <strong><code>df -h</code></strong> command.
        As you can see below we need more space on
        <strong>/</strong> so we will extend
        <strong>/dev/mapper/cloud–x–vg-root</strong>.
