Thus (assuming you do have those +200GB free space) there is no need to reinstall the OS to claim them, but it's just a matter of resizing your root LVM partition [ to include them into your root device +/then into your physical volume (PV) + into your volume group (VG) +/then into your logical volume +/then into your filesystem ].
I've routinely done that on my On-premises Linux systems but I've just done it remotely on @Neoon's NAT-VPS. Thus, I'll be posting the process in a new thread this weekend, for future reference.
