Resize data partition on wic Pi image

If I try and resize the data partition of the new wic images for Raspberry Pi, I get the following error:


Resize commands are (similar to those used on sdimg, just part 2 not 4):

echo "resizepart 2 15000MB" | parted /dev/sdf

resize2fs /dev/sdf2


Also note that I have tried with GUI gparted in case my cmd skillz are wonky. Same result.


Question thus, how do I resize for the new wic images? Without this resize, we cannot log VRM data when there is an internet issue - which happens a lot.


Ps. This was answered for the older sdimg format here: https://community.victronenergy.com/questions/76796/raspberry-pi-expand-storage-to-fit-sd.html?childToView=104267#comment-104267

Would be very helpful to us to get some advice on this. We have noticed that even with the partition expanded, it seems like the logging is sometimes not being retained on the Pi's for upload once Internet is back. This is pretty essential for us.
