vCenter shows wrong disk size

[dazzpowder]

Hi All,

I recently extended a .vmdk with vmkfstools -x -d eagerzero.... as it was an eager zero disk I was extending, all is good with the vm etc but when I return to vsphere it shows the old disk size not the new extended size.  How do I get it to reconcile with the real vm disk size?

Thanks

What you may try is to reload the VM - see https://kb.vmware.com/kb/1026043 - (may require to shutdown the VM), or use vMotion to migrate the VM to another host.

Thanks, forgot about trying a vmotion that worked.
