Practice question 259 of 506 · medium

An Azure data disk was enlarged, but the guest volume still has its old size. What is the next guest task after verifying the new disk size?

Choose the single best answer.

A.Extend the partition and supported filesystem into the new free space
B.Compact the virtual disk instead of extending its partition
C.Rescan only and assume the existing filesystem always extends automatically
D.Create another partition while claiming the existing volume's size increased

Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

Extend the partition and supported filesystem into the new free space

After the disk exposes extra capacity, the intended partition/filesystem still needs extension. A rescan discovers capacity but does not guarantee extension; compaction reclaims eligible file allocation; another partition does not enlarge the existing volume.
