Hey All,
I'm faced with having to replace FreeBSD on some servers in favor of an OS that where I can easily resize partitions/slices. Is there anything new/recent that will work to resize partitions/slices on FreeBSD?
I'm virtualizing pretty much every server I can, and it looks like VMware will be supporting FreeBSD in their new version 4 vSphere of ESX (which is great!), however, resizing VMs is pretty standard, and with it being difficult and dangerous to the point that I don't even want to mess with it, FreeBSD may no longer be an option for me.
Is there anybody out there that knows if gparted, etc. will be supporting FreeBSD in the near future? Even though FreeBSD will be supported on VMware 4, are there other admins out there that will realize you can't really resize the server easily and dump it in favor of pretty much any other server OS?
I'm probably going to have to replace FreeBSD with something like Ubuntu Server.
Mike
