Hi community
I recently added a 300Gb hard drive, rebuilt my RAID5, and now I have more space.
I thought the Datastore would also increase but it is not like that, how could I extend its capacity? As the images show I want to use that storage. Thanks for your suggestions.
Best Wishes
The VMFS partition on the installation drive cannot be modified from the GUI, but only from the command line.
The required steps are explained in https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2002461
If you are unfamiliar with this, or unsure please ask back before you do anything!!!
In case you want/need help, please provide the complete output (pasted as text output, not as a screenshot please) of the following two commands:
partedUtil getptbl "/vmfs/devices/disks/<device-id>"
partedUtil getUsableSectors "/vmfs/devices/disks/<device-id>"

Navigate to the datastore section and select increase capacity from the datastore right-click menu.
