Hi all!

 

After installing ESXi host I got his partition table:

[root@esx:~] df -h

Filesystem   Size   Used Available Use% Mounted on

vfat       285.8M 172.9M    112.9M  60% /vmfs/volumes/5c52dbe5-9ee717e2-6f58-3a9fa14000ba

vfat       249.7M 227.3M     22.4M  91% /vmfs/volumes/5039b0eb-245b9a3e-d595-58efc249425a

vfat       249.7M 232.6M     17.1M  93% /vmfs/volumes/07ac5fe1-e6780032-5912-27bc4b104cad

 

[root@esx:~] partedUtil getptbl "/vmfs/devices/disks/mpx.vmhba32:C0:T0:L0"

gpt

8 1257504 1843199 EBD0A0A2B9E5443387C068B6B72699C7 linuxNative 0

 

mpx.vmhba32:C0:T0:L0 - Is a 8GB SD card.

 

Now I want to increase size of partition to be able to install VMWare updates (there no spase to prestage them). How I can do this? Is this only way is a reinstalling ESXi host?
