I have gone through the process of partitioning a harddrive to allocate 300GB for ISO/template storage. Every time I create a directory in that partition, it only allocates 6.7GB.

Is there a way to resize a directory or allocate a specific size on initialization?
 
Could you share a screenshot?
I don't get your question. Once partitioned and formatted to 300gb this should be the size...
 
Of course I figure it out after I post in the forum... I went through the process of mkfs.ext4 on the partition I was trying to use to create a disk and mounted it after I created it. Then I created a directory using the newly formatted "disk". The images show the partition labeled OSRepo, sized 300GB. When I attempted to create a directory using the file path, the directory was only 6.77GB no matter if I created it in the gui or via CLI. All good now.
