Hey Dale, couple of comments:
- LVM should not impact the resizing of the FS at all. I'm assuming the
68GB you see for /dev/OS/var is the new size in the lvscan output? If
so, you should be ready to resize. If not, your LVM is not quite ready yet.
- Are you sure you're using ext2/3/4 as the FS? Use lsblk to check. If
yes, another thing to try might be remounting the fs as read only during
the action: `mount -oremount,rw /var`
Good luck,
Jay
