VDS_E_EXTEND_FILE_SYSTEM_FAILED

VDS_E_EXTEND_FILE_SYSTEM_FAILED means the storage layer could not complete the file-system expansion after an extend operation. A larger partition does not guarantee that the file system can grow successfully.

What to check

Verify the current partition size and the file-system size separately.
Check the volume health before retrying an extend operation.
Review file-system and storage events for an earlier I/O, lock, or compatibility error.
