Expand the disk after install

[Verhulstak]

I installed a ubuntu vm and i need to expand the disk and i remember on the old site there was a link to something on github of tteck showing some after install steps, however after the transition i cant find it

thanks in advance!!!

I do it this way : go to the VM then HARDWARE, select the disk to expand its size and click on the top menu DISK ACTION and then RESIZE.

To add to this, it's best to either shutdown the VM and resize (basically you have to calculate the desired capacity - current setting to get what number to put in. Then, after this, start the VM. Otherwise, it would just wait until the next shutdown and up. I sometimes need to do this with my Home Assistant VM.
