hello all...could somebody give me a hand? here is the case:
we run a win2008 server in proxmox 4.2.this server has 2 hard disks (c and d for backups)
disk D is marked as basic,if it matters....

we need to extend the disk size from 100Gb to lets say 200Gb or more....
how can i do it? (in the "hardware" tab i see an option saying resize disk,and i see i can increase the size,but i dont want to risk,it's a production server....)

thank you all!
 
this is working without problems, but do not forget to extend the partition inside your windows (using windows diskmanager)
