I don’t think vmware support to resize the disk by decrease the volume size directly. Likely the disk shrink already removed some file systems from OS and cause the OS not able to boot up.
Thanks and Best Regards,
Thanh.
Dear

Interested in this too. I got a windows VM with only C drive. I want to resize from 60GB to 70GB
how do i set up the playbook
What kind of tasks do you need to run on the OS level? You can either use `vmware_vm_shell` to run command or add that VM as ansible host using `add_host` and run command in subsequent plays.
HI Abhijeet,
Thanks a lot for your script, I need
one more help that after VM HDD space increased on VM level, we need to perform
some task on OS level to see the additional disk space, do you have any ansible
script or any help from you.
Cheers Shiva Shankar S
Hi Shiva,
You can do like this -
---
- hosts: localhost
gather_facts: false
vars_files:
- vcenter_vars.yml
tasks:
- name: Resize to 10GB from 4GB
vmware_guest_disk:
validate_certs: False
hostname: '{{ vcenter_hostname }}'
username: '{{ vcenter_username }}'
password: '{{ vcenter_password }}'
datacenter: Asia-Datacenter1
name: vm_8046
disk:
- datastore: "ds_171_2"
scsi_controller: 0
scsi_type: 'paravirtual'
size_gb: 10
state: present
unit_number: 0
TASK [Resize to 10GB from 4GB] **********************************************************************

If you have multiple disks, you need to gather information about all disk and pass it to vmware_guest_disk before making any changes.
