 ### Detecting a changed disk size
 
-If a data disk was expanded without downtime using the procedure mentioned previously, the disk size will not be changed until the device is rescanned, which normally only happens during the boot process. This rescan can be called on-demand with the following procedure.  In this example we have detected using the methods in this document that the data disk is currently `/dev/sda` and has been resized from 256GB to 512GB.
