Log in to the ESXI management platform to expand the capacity of a 200G hard drive and directly edit the hard disk capacity setting300G(Directly modify the size of the hard disk, note that if there is a snapshot, you must delete the snapshot before you can expand the capacity) As shown in the figure below:



Once the setup is complete,Restart your Linux system, otherwise you will not see the expanded disk space.

View partition format and file system

Run fdisk -l to view the disk information, as shown in the following figure:



Run fdisk -lu <DeviceName>to confirm whether the data disk is partitioned. The command is as follows:

"System(Chinese display type)"="Linux" indicates that the data disk uses MBR partition format, and if "System"="GPT" indicates that the data disk uses GPT format. Here it isMBR partitionFormat!

Run blkid <PartitionName>to confirm the type of file system. The command is as follows:

/dev/sdb1: UUID="a3bf7d7c-0230-4184-b14c-25874ad9b578" BLOCK_SIZE="4096" TYPE="ext4" PARTUUID="1316b3b3-01"

In this example, the file system type of /dev/sdb1 is ext4。



Extend an existing MBR partition

For CentOS 7 and above, install the growpart tool with the following command:

Run the following command to expand partitions:

Note: Space separation is required between /dev/sdb and 1.

At this point, the partition has been expanded to 300G, but the mounted directory still shows 200G, as shown in the following figure:



Expand your file system
