Extend Volume

[Thunder]

Hello,

I did an extension of system partition on a server 2008 x64 SP1 which ends
with a "wrong parameter" failure at end. Disk management console shows up the
new size but within explorer and drive properties window still it has the old
size. I did a reboot and disk check (with no errors) - no changes. Eventlog
doesn't show any relevant informations.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Thunder,

Solution 1
- Delete problem partition
- Create new partition
- Restore partition data from backup

If Solution 1 doesn't work, then

Solution 2
- Wipe the disk
- Recreate volumes
- Restore data on each volume from backup

Disk Management built in Windows Server 2008 has ability to exten
system partition, but there must be some unallocated space behind th
system partition. Otherwise, you cannot extend system partition wit
Disk Management, third party 'partition manager
(http://www.partition-tool.com/resource/extend-system-partition-server-2008.htm
is required
