I have installed proxmox on one server and currently one active virtual machine on it.
I want to expand hdd on guest machine. And i find how to i can to do.

When i try to achieve above with command

qemu-img resize /var/lib/vz/images/103/my-vm-disk.qcow2 +20G

Bath my qemu command has not option resize?

I now that is first stable version 1.0 And i want to resolve this some how.

my (very old) version has:
pve-manager: 1.0-6 (pve-manager/1.0/3427)
qemu-server: 1.0-2
pve-kernel: 2.6.24-4
pve-kvm: 75-1
pve-firmware: 1
vncterm: 0.9-1
vzctl: 3.0.22-3pve3
vzdump: 1.1-1
vzprocps: 2.0.11-1dso2
vzquota: 3.0.11-1dso1
And everything is installed on Debian Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 \n \l

My first problem je resize (expand) hdd on guest machine without shutdown(or only with restart).
And on second place is upgrade to newer version.

Have you any advice?
 
I suggest you just plan some downtime and you upgrade to latest version.
I do not see an easy way to do this without powering off.

Bath whether it is possible make upgrade at all?

And how I can start with it. Whether is it need to upgrade Debina4 first and after that proxmox to?
