On Debian based distro you should use
Install the tool:
For more info: man virt-resize
virt-resize
instead. This handle pretty much everything under the hood now. Let's assume your image is called Win7 (why not?). First thing make sure your VM is shut down:Install the tool:
# apt-get install libguestfs-tools
Get the location of your VM disk:# virsh dumpxml Win7 | xpath -e /domain/devices/disk/source
Found 2 nodes in stdin:
-- NODE --
<source file="/var/lib/libvirt/images/Win7.img" />
-- NODE --
<source file="/var/lib/libvirt/images/Win7.iso" />
You may need to adapt /var/lib/libvirt/images/Win7.img
in the following:# virt-filesystems --long --parts --blkdevs -h -a /var/lib/libvirt/images/Win7.img
Name Type MBR Size Parent
/dev/sda1 partition 07 100M /dev/sda
/dev/sda2 partition 07 32G /dev/sda
/dev/sda device - 32G -
Create your 64G disk:# truncate -s 64G /var/lib/libvirt/images/outdisk
You'll need to expand /dev/sda2 (not the boot partition):# virt-resize --expand /dev/sda2 /var/lib/libvirt/images/Win7.img /var/lib/libvirt/images/outdisk

Summary of changes:
/dev/sda1: This partition will be left alone.
/dev/sda2: This partition will be resized from 32G to 64G. The
filesystem ntfs on /dev/sda2 will be expanded using the
'ntfsresize' method.

Resize operation completed with no errors. Before deleting the old
disk, carefully check that the resized disk boots and works correctly.
Make a backup just in case (or simply use mv
if you do not want the backup):# cp /var/lib/libvirt/images/Win7.img /var/lib/libvirt/images/Win7.img.old
# mv /var/lib/libvirt/images/outdisk /var/lib/libvirt/images/Win7.img
Now simply boot !For more info: man virt-resize
