<p>This is where it gets weird.&#160; I could see the new space everywhere except in explore and chkdsk.&#160; They were both telling me that no addition space had been added.&#160; I could not find a way to get the server to recognize the extra space, not even a reboot worked.</p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p>This is when I took to the Internet.&#160; I could not find anything that talked about this and Windows Server 2008.&#160; I did find something about this for Windows Server 2003. The article talked about a DISKPART function that is not readily documented.&#160; It is extend file system.</p>
<p>It worked like a champ.&#160; Within a second of running this command, the server could recognize the addition storage.</p>
<p>Here are the commands to run once you are in DISKPART:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#160;</p>
<pre>DISKPART&gt; select volume 1 

DISKPART&gt; extend filesystem

DiskPart successfully extended the file system on the volume.

DISKPART&gt; exit

Leaving DiskPart...</pre>
