Partitioning a live server
Hi,
We have an application server that has 3 drives setup in a RAID 5 configuration. Unfortunately it was setup with a 'C' partition and a "D' partition on the same logical volume. The 'C' drive is only 9.8GB in size and is quickly running out of space. YES, I know...but that is how it was setup prior to my arrival
Are there any free partitioning tools that can be used to resize the partition with?
Thank-you in advance for taking the time to respond back...

Partition Magic would fix your server but it's not free - http://www.partitionmagicserver.com/server-edition.html
You might find a better price if you search.

If you are running WSUS the database is very large and you can move it like this.
