This guide walks you through checking the current partition layout, safely unmounting the volume, using fdisk to delete and recreate the partition with the same start sector, resizing the ext4 filesystem, remounting the disk, and configuring automatic mounts via fstab, systemd, or autofs.
This tutorial walks you through expanding a Linux disk from 500 GB to 2 TB using fdisk, resizing the ext4 filesystem with resize2fs, remounting the partition, and configuring persistent auto‑mounts via /etc/fstab, rc.local, systemd, or autofs, while also covering common error fixes.
This guide demonstrates how to expand a data disk that lacks partitions on a CentOS 7.4 system, covering both ext* and XFS filesystems, using resize2fs and xfs_growfs commands, and verifying the expansion with df -TH.
This guide demonstrates how to enlarge a CentOS 7.4 data disk that has only a filesystem (no partitions) after increasing its size in the cloud console, using resize2fs for ext* filesystems and xfs_growfs for XFS, with verification commands.
This guide shows how to enlarge a CentOS 7.4 data disk that has no partitions—originally 5 GB and expanded to 10 GB—by resizing ext4 or XFS filesystems with resize2fs or xfs_growfs and verifying the new capacity with df.
This guide explains how to shrink the /home partition, install missing fuser, resize the filesystem, and expand the root directory on a CentOS/RHEL 7 log server, including commands for unmounting, killing processes, resizing ext4 or xfs partitions, and re‑mounting the filesystem.
This guide walks you through booting into rescue mode, checking the root filesystem, deleting and recreating the root partition with fdisk, and resizing the filesystem with resize2fs to reclaim hundreds of megabytes without reinstalling Linux.
