HI, As you've known, vhd-util and qemu-img both provide the capacity for resizing the original disk, but why is virt-resize designed to involve two disks, not only original disk? Is there any concern? Is it possible that only one original disk is involved in virt-resize? -- Regards, Zhi Yong Wu

Hi. Libguestfs 1.14 Ubuntu 11.10 I am trying use virt-resize on NTFS partitions. I have installed Windows 2008 in an LVM partition (in order to use RAW) - I am trying to resize to a larger LVM partition. I have ntfsresize installed on the server - the windows partition is not encrypted. root at kvm1:~# ntfsresize -v ntfsresize v2011.4.12AR.4 (libntfs-3g) The attempt ends with an error

Hi, I have ported various improvements of Beryl's resize to Compiz: - multiple resize modes (aside to the standard "normal" mode those are "Stretch", "Outline" and "Filled Outline") - better aspect ratio constraining (you now also can resize aspect constrained windows from other edges than the lower right) - avoiding of mouse pointer desynchronization

In current virt-resize, only primary partitions(including extended partition) are supported. They are collected in an array for resize operations. Logical partitions are not supported. This series add support for resizing logical partitions. v4: rebase on upstream. v3: 1) rewrite partitions/logical_partitions/extended_partition section by the comments from Rich and Pino. 2) in 03/11

Hi Rich, This is v5 series to add support for resizing MBR logical partitions. please review. Thanks! changes to v4: 1. add support to resize extended partition (--resize or --expand extended partition) 2. fix the problem of deficit of 512 bytes when expanding a logical partition (this problem can be reproduced in v4 by only expanding a logical partition, without resizing any other

This is a set of bugfixes and enhancements to allow virt-resize to really expand Linux and Windows guests. Previously there were lots of bugs. This version has been tested on a variety of guests successfully. Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones libguestfs lets you edit virtual machines.

Hello guys! I tried to shrink a partition when resizing an image using virt-resize. The numbers and result are weird. ================BEFORE================ ><fs> blockdev-getsize64 /dev/sdc 4294967296 ><fs> part-list /dev/sdc [0] = { part_num: 1 part_start: 65536 part_end: 2193555455 part_size: 2193489920 } [1] = { part_num: 2 part_start: 2193555456

Hi Rich, This is v2 series to add support for resizing MBR logical partitions. I found the reason of problem in v1 that parted reports error when adding logical partitions, is that logical partitions are not aligned to 2 sectors. This problem doesn't appear in v2. This is for early review, because of: 1. I'm not sure the splitting of patches is appropriate or not, but it's much
