Hi All,

 

I have a primary disk that need extending but I do not sem to be able to use the vmkfstools -X command without the following error:

 

 

~ # vmkfstools -X 180g 'MSA-C3:uk.domainname.com AP2-5.vmdk'
Failed to extend disk : The system cannot find the file specified (25).
~ # vmkfstools -X 180g 'MSA-C3 uk.domainname.com AP2-5.vmdk'
Failed to extend disk : The system cannot find the file specified (25).
~ # vmkfstools -X 180g 'MSA-C3 "uk.domainname.com AP2-5.vmdk"'
Failed to extend disk : The system cannot find the file specified (25).
~ # vmkfstools -X 180g 'MSA-C3 uk.domainname AP2/uk.domainname.com AP2-5.vmdk'
Failed to extend disk : The system cannot find the file specified (25).

 

I have also tried the full path to the file. from the rout and doing it from the directory the file is stored in. Can someone please confirm if this is a problem with spaces in file names or am I just not doing it correctly?

 

Thank you,

 

Peter
