This is probably an easy question, but I just want to make sure so I don't risk any data loss here. I have a win2k3 VM with two drives: C, D. Each drive is a separate vmdk. C drive is the system disk, and I just need to expand the space on D. Would this be the correct procedure?
1. Shut down the VM
2. login to SC and run: vmkfstools -X 20GB (current size is 16GB)
3. Start VM and under disk management, resize the D partition to utilize the new free space.
The only other possible variable I can see here is that I have two snapshots of the VM currently. Will this cause problems? If so, do I just need to remove the snapshots before performing this operation?
Thanks!
