EC2 Can't resize volume after increasing size

Question

I have followed the steps for resizing an EC2 volume

1. Stopped the instance
2. Took a snapshot of the current volume
3. Created a new volume out of t

Answer 1

So in Case anyone had the issue where they ran into this issue with 100% use , and no space to even run growpart command (because it creates a file in /tmp)

Here is a command that i found that bypasses even while the EBS volume is being used , and also if you have no space left on your ec2 , and you are at 100%

/sbin/parted ---pretend-input-tty /dev/xvda resizepart 1 yes 100%
