Changing the width of the device field in esxtop

Symptom : When running the esxtop for troubleshooting the issue some field width are too small and not able to see the full field name , for example when troubleshooting the storage issue , the device id will be displayed as truncated  like naa.xxxx but not the full device id.

How to fix that : for example when troubleshooting storage issue
1.run esxtop on the ssh session of the esxi server
2.press u for disk device view
3.shift l or simply L ( caps L)
4.press 36 ( to see 36 character)
