Add Unallocated Space to partition

make the existing partition bigger.

How?

right click inside the space where is tells you the partition siz nd you should have an option to extend the volume.

Note this will only work if you have anallocated space of your drive.

From the management console I see Disk 0 C: partition and Unallocated.  If I right click in the unallocated it only gives me the option of new partition.  If I right click in the C partition I basically only get properties.

there should be an option to extend or shrink the volume in the c: partition.

what OS are you running? do you have extend/shrink volume in the menu but grayed out?

No nothing like that.  This is Server 2003 SP2

Ya that is what I was thinking.  Will partition magic extend the partition w/ the OS?

may i know the Hardware specs of your machine? is it HP, DELL or something?

regards,

yeah i think so although i've never used it myself.....

HP DL380

you should be having HP Array Configuration Utility.

go to start>programs>HP System tools>HP Array Configuration Utility>HP Array Configuration Utility


you may Use the Configuration Wizard to guide you through.

regards,

if you were able to set using the HP ACU, you may proceed using the DiskPart command for windows to extend your space.

Regards,

diskpart will not run...the OS is on the same partition.

i see.. you want to extend the System Drive it is.

so your only option is to image and restore the Disk.

you may need a 3rd party software for this.
