Why doesn't df reflect paritition change?

I used the Logical Volume Manager under smit to add a free logical
partition (LP) to the /u filesystem. Before, /u had only one LP
assigned to it, and there was only one free LP available to add.

After adding the LP, smit claimed that everything was OK, and that /u
now had 2 LP's assigned to it, for a total of 8MB.

However, df still claims that /u has a total of 4MB. What's the deal?

Note:

- Yes, my entire user filesystem has a total of 8 MB after installing
  the OS. I think we need another disk.

- Rebooting didn't do anything.

- /u was mounted when I added the LP, maybe that was a mistake.
