I tried that but it didnt seem to want to resize correctly. Wondering if maybe VCenter needs to be up to do the resizing or something. I would resize it to 40GB. Next time I looked at the properties it showed the original size again.

Here is an easy way. I use diskpart. 1. Power off the VM. 2. Resize vmdk. 3. Add this vmdk to another machine and use diskpart. 4. Remove this disk from this VM(where you added it as second disk). 5. Power on the source VM and you are done!

The group that configured our VMware infrastructure created vcenter as a virtual machine. It was only sized at 20GB. We are continually running out of space. Anyone know what would be the easiest way to resize the VM? I have resized VMs in the past with no issues but am not sure how to do the VCenter server.
