Resizable partition is not expanding
-
@Tom-Elliott No, I didn’t change any partition settings, I only installed some updates, and then started the upload process. And this is a newly created image, I might have changed it to non-resizable, and then changed back to resizable, but these changes are on FOG WebGUI, before I issue the upload task.
-
Please re-run the installer and try again?
I know it’s a lot of back and forth, but it should work (hopefully).
At least the original and new sizes appear to be expanding on the same originating disk, I have not yet had the chance to test orig < smaller drive and orig > larger drive yet. Just same size disk for now. All appears to be working atleast in that regard.
-
@Tom-Elliott Yeah! It’s resized properly this time. Thank you so much for your quick response and quick fix!!!
-
Want to give a shot on both upload and deploy (or did you already do this?)
-
@Tom-Elliott Yes, I already did this. Updated FOG, then changed the image from non-resizable to resizable, then upload the image, and downloaded to another computer. All works perfectly. Thanks again!
-
@Hongyun I hate to ask you to do this all again, but apparently something was awry from earlier.
Can you please re-run the installer and perform the same tasks again?
I know I keep asking, and I’m sorry. Just know I’m trying to get to the bottom of it. I’ll bet, currently, your d1.partitions and d1.minimum.partitions files are identical again/still.
-
@Tom-Elliott You are right, the two files are identical. I will try again. but will let you know the result tomorrow, I’m afraid I don’t have enough time to finish both upload and download before I leave for today. Thanks!
-
@Hongyun I really do appreciate it and I’ve ensured the files are fixed now.

@Tom-Elliott I reinstalled FOG, and then uploaded an image, but it looks like the d1.partitions and d1.minimum partitions are still the same:

@Tom-Elliott OK, I just downloaded the image to another computer, and it works. Thanks!
