Tutorial: Resize Server Partition with Acronis Disk Director Server

Here we did an example of reallocating more space to c drive in Windows Server 2003 with Acronis Disk Director Server. The environment is in Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition and the c drive is running out of space, there is free space on G drive. Our mission is to redistribute the free space in G drive to C drive.

1. Before we use Acronis Disk Director Server and we can see the disk partition status and the boot partition is 3.43G

2. As we can see the system drive c is on disk 1 and there is no unallocated space on the same drive.

3. Right click G: partition to produce unallocated space.

4. Drag G drive to the right to produce unallocated space.

5. See the unallocated space next to c drive.(If it is newly added hard drive, you can move the unallocated space next to C by moving other drives apart.)

6. Right click c: drive to claim the unallocated space.

7. Drag c to the end of the right side to claim the unallocated space.

8. Commit all operations.

9. Proceed operations.

10. Operation completed.

11. You may review the extended c drive in your “Disk Management”. And we can see the extended c drive became 5.77GB.
