newbie: resizing a vagrant box

[Donald Raikes]

Hello,
I am very new to vagrant, but I have a question.

I am trying to setup an oraclelinux6 development environment for some
work. I found that Oracle provides a vagrant box for this purpose in
their github repository:
https://github.com/oracle/vagrant-boxes.git.

When I use the oraclelinux 6 vagrant box, it is a 40gb vm.

However, the work I need to do requires a much larger footprint (roughly 128gb).
The virtualbox image consists of 2 vmdk files disk1 and disk2 which on
my windows 10 system both are less than 2.5gb is size, however when I
am inside the box, according to fdisk /dev/sda is 39gb and /dev/sdb is
16gb.

There is a volume group configured on /dev/sda2 of approximately 39gb.

Are there any good instructions on how to resize this box to meet my
needs? I would rather not have to create my own base box just for this
since the basics already exist.

btw: I am using vagrant 2.1.2 and virtualbox 5.2.12 on windows 10 professional.

Thanks in advance,
Donald

the best is you build your own box with the hdd size you require.

check packer.io

here i have a template you test and then adapt
