Unable to resize logical_volume with Ansible

I use Ansible in order to resize an existing logical volume as follows: :

- name: Redimensionnement du volume logique
  lvol:
    lv: "{{ LV }}"
    vg: "{{ VG }}"
    size: "{{ size }}"
    force: yes
    resizefs: yes

However, I get the following error :

fatal: [server]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "err": "fsadm: Cannot get FSTYPE of \"/dev/mapper/{{ VG }}-{{ LV }}".\n  Filesystem check failed.\n", "msg": "Unable to resize {{ LV }} to {{ size }}", "rc": 5}

Why cannot I get FSTYPE ?

How may I get it ?

Finally I found the solution :

I removed the resizefs parameter. Indeed, its default value is no, that's means the underlying filesystem is not resized together with the logical volume.

In my case the resize of the logical volume is sufficient :

- name: Redimensionnement du volume logique
  lvol:
    lv: "{{ LV }}"
    vg: "{{ VG }}"
    size: "{{ size }}"
    force: yes

The vars definition :

LV: "lv_folder"
VG: "data_vg"

The command I used :

ansible-playbook -i hosts.ini playbook.yml -e size=20G -v
