Perhaps every enterprise has its own Server used to share data resource. Along with the expansion of enterprise scale, the amount of transferred data information in Server soars as well, so various problems may come up in Servers of most enterprises, among which the most common is lack of partition space or imbalance of partition utilization ratio. When those situations occur, resizing partitions timely is urgent for Server administrators for the sake of normal operation of Servers. As a Server administrator, what actions will you take to resize partitions?
Many users will suggest using built-in disk management tool in Windows to resize server partitions, but users familiar with the built-in disk management tool clearly know that it is difficult to resize partitions with the built-in utility. Despite the functions of shrinking partition and extending partition in the built-in disk management tool in Windows Server 2008, resizing partitions is hard to realize, because the tow functions have great limitation, only realizing operations at the end of partition.
