Type lvs. The LV (Logical Volume) and VG (Volume group) is listed.
For example, if you have LV root in VG foobar-vg, then the path to the LV would be /dev/foobar-vg/root

I just proved with both commands
lvextend and xfs_growfs
lvextend with -r

they work like a charm.

Thanks

But you can also mention that you can extend lv with 100% free space: lvextend -l +100%FREE /dev/mapper/ubuntu–vg-ubuntu–lv
