Increasing the filesystem size
Hi Guys
We have a VM machine, now I want to increase the size of the filesystem.
We are running RHEL6 O/S.
I have filesystem that is 500GB I want to increase that filesystem to 1.5 TB.
The guy who manages the VM increased the size on the VM machine, now how do I make sure that the changes reflect on the O/S?
Thanks in advance...
Please Help!!!
