    Hi managers,

    I've got a disk which I need to grow dynamically.
    System is an ES47 running 5.1B, connected to an EVA5000.

    I've expanded the disk on the EVA, from 100GB up to 150GB.

    Can someone let me know how to get the OS to see the extra space.
    I think I'm right in saying it can be done without unmounting the file
    system...

    Cheers,

    Rob
