VMWare - Change the size of virtual machine

In VMware once the vm is created we cannot change the size of it, on bit of googling I found the command line utility which can do lot of useful things, and expanding the vm size is one of them.

For that simply type the following command in the installation folder of VMware

vmware-vdiskmanager -x <size>GB <VMPath>

More details on this can be found here.

But remember this will not change the partition setup inside the virtual machine so for that you need to use the hot partition manipulator like Partition magic etc.
