Command line option (run after boot VMWare from GParted disc or iso)

--Start fdisk and display current partition---
# fdisk /dev/sda

Select (default p): p
Partition number (1,3,4, default 1): 1
First sector (2048-209715199, default 2048): <==== This MUST be the same as in the original partition table!
Using default value 2048
Last sector, +sectors or +size{K,M,G} (2048-207607994, default 207607994): <== Use the default, will be maximum it can do
Using default value 207607994
Partition 1 of type Linux and of size 99 GiB is set
--Write new partition-----
Command (m for help): w
The partition table has been altered!
Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table.
Syncing disks.
--Check file system consistence----
# e2fsck -f /dev/sda1
e2fsck 1.42.9 (28-Dec-2013)
Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes
Pass 2: Checking directory structure
Pass 3: Checking directory connectivity
Pass 4: Checking reference counts
Pass 5: Checking group summary information
/dev/sda1: 11/1245184 files (0.0% non-contiguous), 122210/4980480 blocks
--Resize partition----
# resize2fs /dev/sda1
resize2fs 1.42.9 (28-Dec-2013)
Resizing the filesystem on /dev/sda1 to 25950743 (4k) blocks.
In my own practice, /dev/sda2 sectors straight after /dev/sda1/, so either change /dev/sda2/ and /dev/sda5/ start sectors, or just delete /dev/sda2 and /dev/sda5, then all unassigned sectors can be added to new /dev/sda1
Above is resizing 'primary partition'. Below is for resize partition on logical volume [7]
---------------------------------------------------
Baisc relationship among PhysicalVolume(PV), VolumeGroup(VG) and LogicalVolume(LV):
PV (/dev/sda2) -> VG (turnkey) -> LV (root)
Resize PV, then extend LV, then resize2fs /dev/VG/LV .....
---expand guest OS disk space from 20G to 200G
Using VMWare disk -> utilities -> Expand
---resize LVM in GParted GUI mode from 20G to 200G
Remember to partition->deactivate LVM2 PV before resizing. [8]

Examples
"lvextend -L +54 /dev/vg01/lvol10 /dev/sdk3" tries to extend the size of that logical volume by 54MB on physical volume /dev/sdk3. This is only possible if
/dev/sdk3 is a member of volume group vg01 and there are enough free physical extents in it.
"lvextend /dev/vg01/lvol01 /dev/sdk3" tries to extend the size of that logical volume by the amount of free space on physical volume /dev/sdk3. This is
equivalent to specifying "-l +100%PVS" on the command line.
"lvextend -L+16M vg01/lvol01 /dev/sda:8-9 /dev/sdb:8-9"
tries to extend a logical volume "vg01/lvol01" by 16MB using physical extents /dev/sda:8-9 and /dev/sdb:8-9 for allocation of extents.
Surprisingly fast when do it for fedora20 (Only a couple of seconds)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Expand in VMWare on fedora20 disk space from 20G to 250G
2. GParted iso start up and resize LVM2 PV from 20G to 250G to include new unallocated new space from VMware expansion.
3. Restarted into Fedora20. run lvextend, and resize2fs. A few seconds for this on-line resizing. Done
