Configure Postfix through cloud-init

In this case partition 2 . For the partition ‘end’ prompt you can enter in 100% or -1s . This next step is a little odd but you can enter an estimate for the total size that should be allocated for /dev/vda2. pvresize --setphysicalvolumesize 24.6G /dev/vda2 You’ll be see a prompt that actually states the real size. So you can just select no for the prompt to carry out the change and adjust the size on the command...
