CENTOS extend LVM using existing space on the virtual disk

After creating virtual machine from template I have to provide it with more disk resources. I just reconfigure provided vitrual disk and made it size of 500Gb. After reboot I still see the same partitions sizee as before:

# df -h
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/vg_vzldap1-lv_root
                       18G  2.7G   14G  16% /
tmpfs                 1.9G     0  1.9G   0% /dev/shm
/dev/sda1             485M   53M  407M  12% /boot

Create extra disk partition:

#fdisk /dev/sda

Command (m for help): p

Disk /dev/sda: 536.9 GB, 536870912000 bytes

Command (m for help): w

The partition table has been altered!

Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table.

WARNING: Re-reading the partition table failed with error 16: Device or resource busy.

The kernel still uses the old table. The new table will be used at

the next reboot or after you run partprobe(8) or kpartx(8)

Syncing disks.

Trying to create a physical volume from the new partition:

# lvm pvcreate /dev/sda3

  Device /dev/sda3 not found (or ignored by filtering).

OK! I rebooted the server and everything work fine:

#lvm pvcreate /dev/sda3

  Writing physical volume data to disk "/dev/sda3"

  Physical volume "/dev/sda3" successfully created

Add this physical volume to the volume group 

#lvm vgextend "vg_vzldap1" /dev/sda3
  Volume group "vg_vzldap1" successfully extended
