How to shrink the guest OS disk ?

mhornspe-OracleJan 8 2008 — edited Jan 8 2008
Hi,

I created a brand new PVM with OEL4U5 x86-64. I installed all packages for Oracle Products and want to use it as a template for future installations.
I initially created the virtual hard disk with 50 Gb.

Based on the thread 604384 , I notice I could easily expand a disk.

Since my 50 Gb virtual disk is not used much at this stage, I'm wondering if there is an option to downsize it / shrink it to 10 Gb for instance, provided that there is not more than 10Gb really used on that disk.

Thank you,
Mathieu
