VM Disk Extend

When trying to extend a VM disk it says the VM must reboot due to our configuration.

The VM is a Windows server 2022.

We are using Generic GFS2 iSCSI LUNs as the backend datastore.

Does this mean iSCSI LUNs do not allow hot extends?

Re: VM Disk Extend

Adding to this further I found that doing this from the instance allowed the disk to be extended with no reboot however doing it from the VM page directly rebooted it.

 

I also found that removing CD Disks caused the VM to reboot no matter where I did this from.

 

Can we really not add and remove disks without a reboot?
