Search the NOW site for "Converting a traditional root volume to a flexible root volume" It has the exact steps you need. Requires a reboot.

I'm in the process of setting up a new FAS270. The first thing I did was upgrade firmware/nd Ontap to version 7. After doing some reading, I think I will plan to implement FlexVols in the remaining free space. The root Vol0 seems to be bigger than I would have made it, and it seems it needs to be a traditional Vol that I cannot resize. I'd be interested to know what other people are doing here... are you leaving Vol0 as a traditional volume and adding other flex vols? What about resizing the root volume?
Thanks.
