My Ubuntu vm running under vmware workstation had 20GB of storage.
I increased the storage to 50GB and rebooted but when I do df -h, it still shows only 20GB of storage.
Do I need to run some command to repartition or to assign the new alloted size.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Yes, you need to resize your partitions and filesystems.

You could usefdiskandresize2fs, but you'd need to be careful and work around any other partitions sitting in the way (e.g., swap): askubuntu.com/a/119458/799387. Also, note that the procedure involving these two utilities has near-zero safeguards against mistakes.

You could use
fdisk and resize2fs, but you'd need to be careful and work around any other partitions sitting in the way (e.g., swap): askubuntu.com/a/119458/799387. Also, note that the procedure involving these two utilities has near-zero safeguards against mistakes.– dsstorefile1
