Hi Gilberto,

I make some research here, I seems to me that resize disk works only
with no-system boot disk.
So, with C: wouldn't work!

If you read carefully the first post, and the code extract, it seems
that it is caused by the Proxmox code in qemi.pm, that says :
"die "you can't online resize a virtio windows bootdisk\n" "

So it is explicitly forbiden by the code, even if it should be possible
wirh Win7/8, 2008 R2/2012 (I never tried and did not verified).
It requires some change in the code, allowing resizing for thses OSes.

Hi,

To my knowledge, Win2008 (R2, at least) allows a hot resize of the system disk, and 2012 (and R2) certainly does. But that might be related to something else, like a compatibility issue with the virtio drivers and hot resize ?

As far as I tested, it works nicely : Windows reports the block_resize properly. I can't find anything recent describing any issue with that feature on the virtio side.. So I'd say, off with the condition, let us resize at will.

Besides, it shouldn't be Proxmox API's work to tell you that the OS won't let you resize the disk, as it won't harm it if it can't detect it, and can only avoid you forgetting about resizing it at the next reboot if so..


Cheers

Gilles
