[ovirt-users] Re: VM Disk extend not reflected in VM oS

Once upon a time, simon@justconnect.ie <simon@justconnect.ie> said:

I extended a VM disk via oVirt Manager (4.4.8) without error, but when I checked the VM (fdisk & lsblk) the size has not changed.

Any help as always would be appreciated.

What is the OS running in the VM, and what type of disk is it (virtio, virtio-scsi, IDE)? Newer Linux versions should see a virtio/virtio-scsi disk size change immediately. Some older versions had ways to trigger a rescan to see the size change, while some required a reboot. -- Chris Adams <cma@cmadams.net>
