I am running this instance in AWS. [root at ip-10-0-0-218 centos]# cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS Linux release 8.2.2004 (Core) [root at ip-10-0-0-218 centos]#>> Looks like you could move p3 to the end of the disk and then enlarge p2and then grow the XFS on it. Is there a way to move p3 to the end of the disk using fdisk or gparted CLI tool? Please suggest. Thanks in Advance. Best Regards, Kaushal
