I don’t know the logic of resizing a volume behind cloudstack but I always 
resize it from command line on xenserver and it works, cloudstack might be 
creating a totally new drive which defeats the purpose (I am going by your 
description of the problem) of having a resize button there. I might be wrong 
and it might be doing what is expected and your situation (storage,hypervisor 
combo etc.) might not be allowing it, ty

Subject: Re: Resize DATA-Disk

Hello ,

I'm working on 4.4 cloudstack with multiple xenservers6.2 and FC as primary 
storage.
When i add a DATA volume and attach it to a VM,the volume is connected  and 
listed after a fdisk -l (/dev/xvdb) command but its not mounted (not listed on 
df -h command).
So i do so manually (mount the disk on the linux server) i cretae partion and 
mount it on the server and now this volume is listed on th df -h command.
But when i resize this volume ,he will go back to first state connected but not 
mounted on the VM and i loose the filesystem  the volume allays appears on 
fdisl -l command .

Thx
