Resizing a Disk

For primary and swap (Linux, FreeBSD) disks, you may only change the label and the size. You can easily resize disks when needed. The resize will fail if your current usage is greater than the new size you request. Note that any changes on disk size will lead to a reboot of your Virtual server. Here are the steps to change disk size:

1. From the cloud dashboard, click on Virtual Servers menu.
2. Make sure your virtual server is powered off, Click the label of the virtual server you're interested in.
3. Click the Storage tab, then select Disks.
4. Click the Actions button next to the disk you want to change, then click the Edit link.
5. Enter a new disk label, if desired in the field provided
6. Enter the disk size in GB, in the field provided.
7. Click the Save Disk button.

Restrictions

• You cannot decrease the size of Integrated Storage data store disks.
• You cannot decrease disk size for Windows-based and FreeBSD-based virtual servers. Only the increase disk size option is available.
• You cannot resize the primary disk for FreeBSD-based virtual servers.
• Decreasing disk size for Linux-based virtual servers may lead to filesystem inconsistencies. Make sure you have current backups before proceeding.
• If disk file system cannot be detected (disk has more than one partition or some special partition table/file system), you can only increase disk physical volume size.
• If you start disk resize and then decide to cancel it, there can be dangerous side effects including file system corruption.
• Size of the primary disk cannot exceed 2 TB.
