Oh, what about the resize2fs commands?

I had a look at those but they are only for file system sizing.

i thing without reboot u cont get it

just a try
run kudzu and check it

Code:

class: HD
bus: SCSI
detached: 0
device: sda
desc: "VMware Virtual disk"
host: 0
id: 0
channel: 0
lun: 0

It shows the hardware device /dev/sda but it doesnt seem to pick up on the allocated size at all.

Thanks for the effort but i will keep looking and if i find anything will let you know, or if you do happen to think of anything else its always worth a try.

PARTX(8)						      System Manager's Manual							  PARTX(8)

NAME

       partx - telling the kernel about presence and numbering of on-disk partitions.

SYNOPSIS

       partx [-a|-d|-l] [--type TYPE] [--nr M-N] [partition] disk

DESCRIPTION

       Given  a  block	device	(  disk  ) and a partition table type , try to parse the partition table, and list the contents. Optionally add or
       remove partitions.

       This is not an fdisk - adding and removing partitions is not a change of the disk, but just telling the kernel about presence and numbering
       of on-disk partitions.

OPTIONS

       -a     add specified partitions or read disk and add all partitions

       -d     delete specified or all partitions

       -l     list partitions. Note that the all numbers are in 512-byte sectors.

       --type TYPE
	      Specify the partition type -- dos, bsd, solaris, unixware or gpt.

       --nr M-N
	      Specify the range of partitions (e.g --nr 2-4).

SEE ALSO

       addpart(8), delpart(8), fdisk(8), parted(8), partprobe(8)

AVAILABILITY

       The partx command is part of the util-linux-ng package and is available from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux-ng/.
