That only increases the device size, you also need to extend the partition onto that larger device. e2fsadm will do it or you can fdisk it to the larger size. (mind you this involves deleting and recreating the partition in-memory not on disk, unless you make a mistake and do d 1 w, instead of d 1, then n p 1 <return><return><return>)
Anyhow, you really should look into extending the partition/LV itself now, depending if you partitioned or not, or used an invalid extent specification

Subject: Re: How to increase/decrease space
"lvextend" did not help.
My file system type is "ext3".
Here is output:
#df -m
...
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol04 1985 1728 156 92% /usr
...
#lvdisplay VolGroup00/LogVol04
...
LV Size 2.45 GB
...
I did the following on /opt file system for testing, the results were
the same the filesystem did not get increased.
#umount /opt
#lvresize -L +64 VolGroup00/LogVol07
#lvextend -L +64 VolGroup00/LogVol07
Any suggessions.

You've resized the volume but not the filesystem sitting on top
of it. Some filesystems can be resized online while others must
be unmounted. Some may not be resizable at all.
