Again, adjust the command for your setup. In my case, since I'm expanding sda3 I tell it to resize partition 3 to 100% of available space. While still in parted, enter the resizepart command to accomplish this. Now you need to actually expand the partition. Number Start End Size File system Name Flags Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/4096B Warning: Not all of the space available to /dev/sda appears to be used, you can fix the GPT to use all of the space (anĮxtra 69206016 blocks) or continue with the current setting?

It should recognize that the partition table isn't using the full space and ask whether you want to fix it, so choose Fix at this point. Next, you need to tell Ubuntu to rescan the block device, in this case sda: Each step is almost instantaneous.įirst, expand the virtual disk using the Hyper-V GUI or CLI tools (easiest way is to open the VM's settings, select the hard drive under the SCSI controller, then choose "Edit" then "Expand"). With Gen2 virtual machines, everything can be done online, while the guest OS is running, and without rebooting. All the commands must be run as root ( sudo -i to login as root).įilesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on Adjust the examples below depending on your setup. On my system, I was expanding the root filesystem (which was on dev/sda3) from 128GB to 160GB.
If you want to do this without GUI tools, you can use parted. Thanks for your time in reading this question and let me know if there are additional details I could give you. In the end I would like to add some space to the boot partition as well. I haven't really used LVM before and am not a a Linux guru at all so I am not sure what my next steps would be as I am searching for howtos on this process. dev/sda5 501760 33552383 16525312 8e Linux LVMĭisk /dev/mapper/ubuntu-vg-root: 14.8 GB, 14751367168 bytesĢ55 heads, 63 sectors/track, 1793 cylinders, total 28811264 sectorsĭisk /dev/mapper/ubuntu-vg-root doesn't contain a valid partition tableĭisk /dev/mapper/ubuntu-vg-swap_1: 2143 MB, 2143289344 bytesĢ55 heads, 63 sectors/track, 260 cylinders, total 4186112 sectorsĭisk /dev/mapper/ubuntu-vg-swap_1 doesn't contain a valid partition table I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I have tried using Part Magic but it is not allowing be to expand the size even though I do see the added space.įdisk -l gives me Disk /dev/sda: 108.4 GB, 108447924224 bytesĢ55 heads, 63 sectors/track, 13184 cylinders, total 211812352 sectors LVM was set up at boot up and after adding 100GB through the edit disk wizard I am unable to add that space to the partitions. In my lab environment I have an Ubuntu server 12.04 which I am trying to add space to.
