Ok, to use labels you either need the EVMS patched version of
util-linux  2.11t I think.  You can check whether or you have
done this correctly by checking the output from "mount"  You
should see /dev/evms/sda8 NOT /dev/sda8.

If you see /dev/sda8 than you have not mounted the EVMS volume
and resizing using EVMS can cause problem.

Please see above.

If the resize really took place, there should be nothing extra to do for
df.
