I have been looking for a way to increase the rootfs of an LXC container for a while now.  
I know there is a simple PUT REST CALL to trigger this, but is it also possible in the Proxmox collection?

Thank you for your help.

The only mention I see if resizing in the proxmox collection is in the proxmox\_disk module. Look at state=resized:

> **[community.proxmox.proxmox\_disk module – Management of a disk of a Qemu(KVM)...](https://docs.ansible.com/projects/ansible/latest/collections/community/proxmox/proxmox_disk_module.html#parameter-state)**

I found that locating the community/proxmox files locally and searching them for “resize”.

Hope that helps!
