Is there a way to expand xfs filesystem /dev/nvme0n1p2 which is 7.8G and occupy the remaining free disk space of 60GB?

Can you set up an identical EC2 instance to test the process?  I definitely wouldn't do this on a system with data that you need, but you *might* be able to:

* create a new 1M partition at the end of the drive (not BIOS boot type) * reboot * use 'dd' to copy the content of nvme0n1p3 to nvme0n1p4 * delete the third partition and change the fourth to BIOS boot type. * resize the second partition * grub-install /dev/nvme0n1 * reboot * xfs_growfs
