Description

A partition and filesystem can be expanded to use newly available disk space. It is useful after growing a virtual disk, cloud volume, or image where the existing filesystem has not yet been resized.

Storage resizing can destroy data if the wrong device is selected or the operation is interrupted. Back up important files and verify device names before running it.
