Resize a persistent disk

This sample resizes a persistent disk to a specified size in GB. After you resize the disk, you must also resize the file system so that the operating system can access the additional space.

    Waits for the extended (long-running) operation to complete.

    If the operation is successful, it will return its result.
    If the operation ends with an error, an exception will be raised.
