vmware esx下linux系统的磁盘扩展,【转】VMWare ESX Server下LINUX完美增加硬盘空间（LVM）（亲测成功）...

[root@*****~]# fdisk /dev/sda

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to

39162.

There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than

1024,

and could in certain setups cause problems

with:

1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of

LILO)

2) booting and partitioning software from other

OSs

(e.g., DOS FDISK,

OS/2 FDISK)

#输入n，新建分区

Command (m for help):n

#输入P，主分区

#目前是sda第三个分区输入3

Partition number (1-4): 3

#敲回车，默认就行了(如果要分多个分区，这儿就制定数值)

#这里选择第三个分区

Partition number (1-4): 3

#指定分区的格式为8e

The partition table has been altered!

Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table.

WARNING: Re-reading the partition table failed with error

16: (这里有个小报错，不用管它).

The kernel still uses the old table.

The new table will be used at the next reboot.
