instead, resize it from xenserver and use gparted from OS (download iso and boot it from there) just like we do for Root and Data drives, works on both, thats why we werent using resize function from cloudstack but now we have another reason :)

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 .
