lvextend extends the underlying block device. It does not resize the
filesystem. You will need to resize the file-system. Assuming that you
are using ext2/3, this would be the following sequence of commands:

 umount /work
 e2fsck -f /dev/DataVG00/DataLV01
 resize2fs /dev/DataVG00/DataLV01
 mount /work
