Error Amend the size of a Partition Error
Hi guys,

I'm fidling around Partition space on SMC
and on changing partition size, or assiging an unused partition to "usr", or even trying to alter the disk layout I get:

Attempted Format of Partition /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s3 failed with unexpected CIM error:
CIM_ERR_FAILED:CIM_ERR_FAILED: CIMProperty.getValue failed for property SystemCreationClassName

Would anyone know what this is? Google wasnt helpful sadly!

Thanks for your help!
Chris

Do you experience any issues when managing the partition table using the "format" command?

Cheers,

my issue's that /usr is full and that being part of /, i'm looking to increase its space or assign any unallocated space to it
