Hi, I'm currently fiddling with KVM, Proxmox and various VMs. I setup a very basic VM with a manual (fdisk) partitioning scheme: one /boot partition, one swap partition, and one root partition, the latter being the last partition and thus expandable). I'm starting with a reduced disk size (6 GB in total) and a minimal installation. The idea behind this approach is that I can clone this minimal VM and then eventually expand it to fit my needs. Here's how I expand the available disk size. First I increase the virtual disk in the hypervisor. Then I fire up the VM and do the following: # yum install cloud-utils-growpart # lsblk # growpart -v /dev/sda 3 # resize2fs /dev/sda3 Now here's my question (finally): is there any risk involved in this sort of operation? Or can it be performed on a production system without having to worry about data loss?
Just a hint - man virt-resize -- Leon _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
