Re: [Xen-users] resize xen disk file

["Martin Fernandez" <martingfernandez@xxxxxxxxx>]

I resized the file disk using:
dd if=/dev/zero of=image bs=1M conv=notrunc count=1 seek=10240
But when I boot up my VM I can't see the new space

[root@boldtsamqa ~]# vgdisplay

I don't know the syntax off of the top of my head, but I'd imagine that you could use the dd command to tack on empty space to the end of your file.  Once that's done, you can boot up the domU and expand your LVM partition.
