I extended logical volume, but filesystem size has not increased

Hello List,

I am running FC4. My '/' is '/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00' mapped to physical
partition '/dev/hda2'. I felt it's getting too filled up and added another
partition from the second drive 'dev/hdb5' to Logical Volume 00. I
initialised and added the partition to 'VolGroup00' using
'system-config-lvm' gui. As it doesn't allow extension of logical volume,
I used 'lvextend' command to do it. Everything worked well except that
still the size of my '/' is reported as 286 MB (vacant) whereas I have
added a
partition of size 8 GB to it and I expected it to be around 8.2 GB

lvm> lvscan
    ACTIVE            '/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00' [13.00 GB] inherit
    ACTIVE            '/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01' [512.00 MB] inherit
lvm> lvmdiskscan
    /dev/hda1 [      101.94 MB]
    /dev/hda2 [        5.54 GB] LVM physical volume
    /dev/hda3 [        1.89 GB]
    /dev/hda4 [      509.88 MB]
    /dev/hdb1 [        5.00 GB]
    /dev/hdb5 [        8.00 GB] LVM physical volume
    /dev/hdb6 [        8.00 GB]
    /dev/hdb7 [        8.00 GB]
    /dev/hdb8 [        7.78 GB]
    0 disks
    7 partitions
    0 LVM physical volume whole disks
    2 LVM physical volumes
lvm> lvs
    LV       VG         Attr   LSize   Origin Snap%  Move Copy%
    LogVol00 VolGroup00 -wi-ao  13.00G
    LogVol01 VolGroup00 -wi-ao 512.00M

    VG         #PV #LV #SN Attr  VSize  VFree
    VolGroup00   2   2   0 wz--n 13.50G    0

Is it because /dev/hdb5 is not mounted like /dev/hda2 ? But shouldnot it
get mounted when /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 gets mounted at '/' during
bootup? I looked up in the boot messages, I see no error message. I also
see device mapper module (dm_mod) loaded. What else could be the reason?

Thanks,

Parameshwara Bhat
