Interesting. Can you shut down the vcenter server?
If so, at the service console of the host that has the vcenter guest,
run vmkfstools -X to expand the vmdk.

When I go back in and edit the settings of the VM again it shows the
original 20GB size.

What does the guest say though?
Sometimes I've made changes in the viclient and have to restart it
before they show up correctly.

: RE: VMware - Vcenter resize?
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.
Craig Gauss, Technical
Sounds right. When you log into the vServer machine, and look at Disk
Management, does it show the new size?

Nope, you don't need vCenter to do the resize.
Are you trying to do it from the VI Client or from the service console
on the esx host?

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!

Or just add another virtual drive, if you find the 20GB is actually
adequate for a boot partition. I usually do.

I have done this on VM's using GPart. Allocate more space to the VM then mount
the GPart ISO and boot to it ( you will need to access the vm via the console
using VI) instructions on how to resize are below

~ Finally, powerful endpoint
You need to first allocate more space for the VM, like to 50GB. Then
boot the VM with an ISO image that has a disk resizing utility and
increase the drive size to use all of the 50GB.
You should be to point the Infrastructre client directly to the esx
server, logon as root and manipulate the V
