Hi at all, I use DietPi in VirtualBox and just increased the Virtual Disk from 8GB to 16GB. Then I selected “dietpi-drive_manager” to increase the RootFS partition to the new maximum. Unfortunately is still is as small as before. What am I missing here? Best wishes!

thanks for your help. I managed to fix it by exporting the “appliances” (VMs) to an .ova file. that forced the snapshots to be merged. then I re-imported them and deleted everything else that was not needed anymore. Now I could resize without a problem.
