This is misleading. CentOS 8 Stream will continue to exist. CentOs 8 Stream is not as reliable for *anything* s because it declines to publish point releases, the same stunt Red Hat pulled with Red Hat 9 nearly 20 years ago, and reverted within a few years with RHEL 2.6 or so releases. It also uses the CentOS community as beta testers for new RHEL code, before it's been published in RHEL. This is a bit of a betrayal of CentOS original goals but was decided without input from the CentOS community, behind closed doors at Red Hat. Kind of like the labeling of the ansible-core/ansible_collections split, it's created a lot of unnecessary confusion and caused people to have to do various things backwards from the vendor published guideline. It's also lead to Karanbir Singh resigning from his leadership of CentOS, and the advent of AlmaLinux and RockyLinux to take CentOS's place as a reliable downstream rebuild of RHEL. It's not the first time, I remember Whitebox and Scientific Linux being similar rebulds. We'll see what happens in a few years. > Did you search for azure modules on the ansible website? > > https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/2.9/modules/azure_rm_manageddisk_module.html#azure-rm-manageddisk-module > https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/2.9/modules/azure_rm_virtualmachine_module.html#azure-rm-virtualmachine-module > > If you have code you want reviewed post it. > On Monday, August 8, 2022 at 1:35:53 PM UTC-4 Nitrous wrote: >> >> Hey Guys, Ive just deployed a VM for Centos from Azure market place, but it >> seems like that the OS disk by default is 30GB, and I want to be able to use >> the whole partition.
