Increase virtual disk size
**************************
Once you have determined the disk and partition to be increased, you are ready to perform the actual increase.
Power off VM and increase virtual disk size:
--------------------------------------------
To increase the virtual disk size for a prebuilt image, perform the steps below:
#. Shut down your VM if it is running.
#. Use an appropriate hypervisor tool to increase the virtual disk size of
your VM.
#. Power up the VM.
#. Shut down your VM if it is running.
#. Use the process defined by your hypervisor to
increase the virtual disk size of your |CL| VM.
#. Power up the VM.
Resize the partition of the virtual disk:
-----------------------------------------
#. Log in to an account with root privileges.
#. Open a terminal emulator.
#. Add the |CL| `storage-utils` bundle to install the `parted` and
`resize2fs` tools.
#. Log in to an account with root privileges.
#. Open a terminal emulator.
#. Add the |CL| `storage-utils` bundle to install the :command:`parted` and :command:`resize2fs` tools.
.. code-block:: bash
.. code-block:: bash
sudo swupd bundle-add storage-utils
sudo swupd bundle-add storage-utils
#. Launch the `parted` tool.
.. code-block:: bash
.. code-block:: bash
sudo parted
sudo parted
#. In the `parted` tool, perform these steps:
#. Press :command:`p` to print the partitions table.
#. If the warning message below is displayed, enter :command:`Fix`.
#. Press :command:`p` to print the partitions table.

Figure 1 shows how to increase the size of a |CL| Hyper-V image from 8.5
GB to 20 GB. Before the steps shown in Figure 1, we used the Hyper-V Manager
to increase the VM virtual disk size from 8.5 GB to 20 GB.
#. Run the :command:`df -h` to verify that the filesystem size has increased.
