You can change virtual machine disk configurations by adding new disks, changing disk sizes, and changing virtual device node settings. Since VMware ESX 3.5 U3, it’s possible to enlarge the size of a disk while the virtual machine is powered on. When you combine this new feature with the Dell ExtPart utility, you can Extend the OS disk the easy way. The ExtPart utility provides support for online volume expansion of NTFS formatted basic disks.
