I see few issues above.
- LVM is not a filesystem.
- You don't need to shutdown VM to extend its disk size.
- You don't need to boot from any installer CD to resize partitions, you can do it from within live system with fdisk, although if you have some unusual partition layout you're probably better off doing it offline.
- You can also extend filesystem on a live system, no need for shutdown.
I thought his approach was over cautious. Windows will allow you to extend any partition except the
drive live, and I'm guessing you can likely extend even / live in Linux OSes.
Are you sure about extending c:? I've done it many times, on live systems. Although it was on bare metal desktops after cloning drive to a bigger one.
You did it live with windows tools? OK that would be a new one on me.
Also did it live on Linux as well in both cases.
