Partition extended but File system shows old disk size.

Disk Management.

One of my colleague from Europe called me stating on one of his server he extended disk and it was completed successfully but in my computer it still shows existing size and disk management shows new value.

It was #Windows Server 2008 server as it was escalated to me initially I thought it must be wrong disk or Lun has issue where he was extending disk but that was not the case hence tried to refresh disk, re-scan disk and even did storage refresh :)

I tried #DiskPart too and it was showing latest value so I was got confuse  from where the old value is coming  and hence decided to run following commands one by one and got success.

Disk Part
List Volume
Select volume # (Number on volume)
Extend 

Now we know some time disk size don’t get refresh and hence you should use #DISKPART…
Weird but funny…!
