Turn off the VM.
Use Manager (Hyper-V Manager or Esxi) to select the Settings of the Virtual Machine, select the Hard Drive option and Edit under Virtual hard disk. Use the GUI to expand the drive, start the VM again.
Install Guest Utils (as root)
apt install cloud-guest-utils
You can check the size of your disks (here 95% of use, the free space is 5%)
df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-ubuntu--lv 124G 113G 6.3G 95% /
Use PVS to see the physical partition
pvs

/dev/sda3 ubuntu-vg lvm2 a-- <125.50g 0
Resize the physical volume
pvresize /dev/sda3
Physical volume "/dev/sda3" changed
1 physical volume(s) resized / 0 physical volume(s) not resized
Expend the logical volume (name from df -h)
lvextend -l +100%FREE -r /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-ubuntu--lv
Check the size again
df -h

If you’re not using LVM, you can replace the pvresize/lvextend
steps with resize2fs
instead. A simple resize2fs /dev/sda3
will be the job.
