$ sudo virsh blockresize rhel8 /var/lib/libvirt/images/rhel8.qcow2 40Gīlock device '/var/lib/libvirt/images/rhel8.qcow2' is resizedĬonfirm disk size with fdisk command. $ sudo qemu-img info /var/lib/libvirt/images/ rhel8.qcow2 $ sudo qemu-img resize /var/lib/libvirt/images/rhel8.qcow2 +10G Then extend the disk by using the ` +‘ before disk capacity. $ sudo virsh snapshot-delete -domain rhel8 -snapshotname snapshot1 See this example: $ sudo virsh snapshot-list rhel8 You will need to first remove all VM snapshots. Please note that qemu-img can’t resize an image which has snapshots. sudo qemu-img resize /var/lib/libvirt/images/rhel8.qcow2 +10G Since we know the location of our Virtual Machine disk, let’s extend it to our desired capacity. Image: /var/lib/libvirt/images/rhel8.qcow2Ĭorrupt: false Step 3: Extend guest VM disk $ sudo qemu-img info /var/lib/libvirt/images/rhel8.qcow2 My VM disk is located in ‘/ var/lib/libvirt/images/rhel8.qcow2‘. You can obtain the same information from the Virtual Machine Manager GUI.
$ sudo virsh dumpxml rhel8 | egrep 'disk type' -A 5 $ sudo virsh shutdown rhel8Ĭonfirm that it is truly down before proceeding to manage its disks. If your guest machine is in running state, power it off using its ID or Name.
