Resize a Hard Disk for a Virtual Machine

Our Virtual Machines are provisioned using Vagrant from a Linux base box to run using VirutalBox. If the Hard Disk space runs out and you cannot remove files to free-up space, you can resize the Hard Disk using some VirtualBox and Linux commands.

Some assumptions

The following steps assume you've got a set-up like mine, where:

Sub-CA example
# Assumptions: easyrsa3 available in current dir, and functional openssl.
# This basic example puts the "offline" and "sub" PKI dirs on the same system.
# A real-world setup would use different systems and transport the public components.
# Build root CA:
EASYRSA_PKI=offline ./easyrsa init-pki
EASYRSA_PKI=offline ./easyrsa build-ca nopass
# Build sub-CA request:
EASYRSA_PKI=sub ./easyrsa init-pki

For production Capistrano deploys, we can't use our own internal git server because the one off amazon box doesn't have access to the internal network. Hacked in a solution to create a port forward to talk back to our network. Works in this case so sharing.
