Increase disk size on VMware
06 May 2010
Came across a handy trick to increase the size of a VM's hard-disk in VMware.
Navigate to the VM's directory and use this command (Linux):
# vmware-vdiskmanager -x 20GB vmfile.vmdk
Now go back to your VM in Workstation and you should see that your hard-disk is now the new specified size.
