Disks can only be increased in size. There is no facility to shrink a disk.

Depending on the guest, you may need to resize the partition and the filesystem
from within the guest. At present the plugin only resizes the underlying disk.

This hasn't been tested on a wide variety of versions of Vagrant or VirtualBox.
It works for, at least, Vagrant 1.8.5 and VirtualBox 5.1.x, but any
feedback about other versions, particularly older ones, would be much appreciated.

### Additional steps

Depending on the guest, you may need to resize the partition and the filesystem
from within the guest. At present the plugin only resizes the underlying disk.

To adapt the filesystem of a logical volume located at `/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00` inside `/dev/sda3` follow these steps:

```sh
# 1. Install Dependencies
sudo yum install -y cloud-utils-growpart xfsprogs

# 2. Extend device partition
sudo growpart /dev/sda 3

# 3. Extend physical volume
sudo pvresize /dev/sda3

# 4. Extend logical volume
sudo lvextend -l+100%FREE /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00

# 5. Extend file system
sudo xfs_growfs -d /
