Increase ExtremeManagement Disk Space

Increase ExtremeManagement Disk Space

Hi,

Just in the process of following this GTAC article about increasing the disk space:

https://extremeportal.force.com/ExtrArticleDetail?an=000078315

I have two hard disks associated to the host, as per the screenshot below:

03805baab50e4f9c89efe31d58d7ea71_RackMultipart20180412-10617-1vh8ta1-VM-Disk_inline.png

 


When I run the script I get the following error:

./expandLVM.sh
WARNING:
This script will attempt to locate a new virtual drive and add it to
the current LVM configuration. This script will format the new drive,
and should only be used in accordance with official instructions
to increase the size of the hard drive.

Would you like to proceed? : y

Starting partition resizing. Start size is 98GB
Logging to expandLVM.log
Scanning for new partition sdc
Scan could not detect new drive sdc, exiting.
Any idea why a new sdc partition isn't being found?

Thanks

I didn't like to add a 2nd disk so the GTAC provided another method for me (= increase the current disk) and it worked great....

I also used this method because I already had two disks in my VM, and it worked well. Be sure to direct it to expand sdb, not sda. That tripped me up.
