You need to first allocate more space for the VM, like to 50GB.  Then
boot the VM with an ISO image that has a disk resizing utility and
increase the drive size to use all of the 50GB.

 

You should be to point the Infrastructre client directly to the esx
server, logon as root and manipulate the VM to boot off the ISO.

Subject: VMware - Vcenter resize?

 

The group that configured our VMware infrastructure created vcenter as a
virtual machine.  It was only sized at 20GB.  We are continually running
out of space.  Anyone know what would be the easiest way to resize the
VM?  

 

I have resized VMs in the past with no issues but am not sure how to do
the VCenter server.
