Worry-free expansion of virtual machine disks

When it comes to disk conversion and disk expansion for virtual machines It's been a headache for IT ., There's a way for VMware to be official. ,we tried to follow the steps again,It's not the average person who can handle it. , not to mention Hyper-V, Citrix,KVM, deeply convincing, Huawei has not yet provided an effective method, and there are risks ., Imagine that VMs in an enterprise's production environment need to be scaled up,do you dare??

It 's good to find this method in a single attempt. , simple and not risky, but to draw on a gadget Anknos (Acronis) disk backup software, can be downloaded at the following address:

Anknos11.7Trial Version can be,The advantage of this product is that the system can be migrated in various heterogeneous environments ., and even many virtualization platforms have made it an official migration program, wherePeer(System migration between heterogeneous physical machines)It's going to cost.,But the function we use is no charge.,after the tool has been downloaded The probationary period of the day.

Here's the dry goods. :

1. first add a new disk on the virtual machine that needs to be expanded, the capacity of the disk is set to the capacity we want to expand to, for example, our disk to be expanded to 500G, the new virtual disk is set to 500G

2. installing Anknos in a virtual machine system (Acronis) Software , the next step The next step is good. , quite simple .

3.Create a backup plan in the software,Use(Disk\ Volume) mode backup C Drive , fast, if you are backing up to a local virtual machine,60G estimate6the minutes are enough.

4. restore drive C to 500G (the system is not assigned a letter, the operating system can not see, but in the Anknos software to see), recovery is also very fast, estimated - g data is enough for ten minutes.

6. Restart the virtual machine, the virtual machine is started again is from the 500G disk boot, the system disk can be, the other disk is not a problem, this method is the biggest feature is no risk

Hope the above method can help you, support all virtual machines
