gpartd is awesome for this, ensuring the right partitions get the right size

difficult to do remotely but not impossible.  All you really need to do is boot 
the server with a live CD (Ubuntu works well) and load up gparted. From there 
just click on the drive and pull the slider into the free space.  Once happy, 
just click apply.

As long as you don't click Apply, no changes are made. So if you get worried or 
mess something up, just reboot without clicking Apply.



This goes without saying, but just in case; always have a backup (even if it's 
a professional you've hired).

We run a server that is on a vm with several other vms.  This particular vm was 
configured for 40 gigabytes HDD but we have outgrown that.  We've already 
changed the vm size to 60 gig but I don't feel comfortable running the steps I 
found on google to resize the actual physical partition.

Is anyone willing to do this for us remotely for a fee?   We'd be happy to pay 
you to do it - especially if you've done it a few times before (cause we 
haven't)

Let me know off list.

thanks :)
