How to enlarge Qemu/kvm virtual disk

[@jimboyyjohnson3996]

Hey there! All of the videos you created have helped me a lot in understanding virtualization with KVM. I love the videos you make and hope to see more high quality content from you!

[@absprog]

Thanks! Will do my best!

Super helpful. Thanks.
On my VM, I also had to do a "$sudo resize2fs /dev/vda3" to expand the filesystem. only then I could see the changes in partition size in my df -kh command. Is this something new???

[@N1mro8]

Doesn't it grow to the max file size?

👏👏👏 This command was what I was missing. thanks.

If you're doing this on a full hard drive, do you lose any data when you delete the old partition in order to grow the new partition?

Thank you for your video. If when creating a virtual machine I used "Sata Disk 1", and not "VirtiO Disk 1" as you have in the video, can I change it ("Sata Disk 1") size in the direction of magnitude. How to do it?

Sir, can we also reduce the size from 80 GB to 50 GB ?
