After:
Before:
When I created my Linux on Azure, I used the default 30G size. I used it up after 1 year. Then I had to increased the disk size. I decided to increase the disk size to 60G. I did this on Azure portal, it's pretty straightforward.
I stopped my VM and increased the disk size then restarted my VM. But nothing has changed.
I then found this link, then I realized that Azure portal didn't do all the magics for me, I had to increase the partition manually.
But the way shown on this page didn't help me, I got the following error on the first step. I couldn't continue.
fennng@fengUbuntu3:~$ sudo umount /dev/sda1
umount: /: target is busy.
Then I found this page.
Above page shows the right way to do it, but when I first time tried it, I got the following error.
Command (m for help): w
GPT PMBR size mismatch (62914559 != 125829119) will be corrected by w(rite).
fdisk: failed to write disklabel: Invalid argument
Then I found another link for the solution
To Summarize, I needed to run parted to fix the GPT then run the fdisk command to rewrite the partition table. Then use resize2fs command to make it take affect. Restarting the VM is not necessary. I can do this online, even it's a system partition.
The following are the full steps:
fennng@fengUbuntu3:~$ sudo parted
