Expanded fibre LUN for a Windows VM...

We are trying to expand a Fibre LUN that is connected to a Inegrity Windows VM. We successfully expanded the LUN from the storage side and HP-UX sees the change. We rebooted the Windows VM and it sees the additional space but how de we expand the Windows partition to use the added size?

Oh yeah, we are on HP-UX 11.23 and running Integrity Virtual Machine 2.0 with Windows 2003 Server Guest.

AND....
The disk we want to expand is the system disk C: and is currently a Basic disk.

Thanks

The C: drive cannot be expanded :(

You may:

Create a new partition and move some data there.

Mount the partition to some big directory and move data on it.

Move the pagefile.sys to this partition and some data.
