A.5 Expanding the Appliance Disk Space

Expanding the Application storage requires unallocated, free disk space associated with the /vastorage and/or /var partitions.

  1. Use the tools and processes provided by your hypervisor to expand the virtual disks that contain the partitions you want to expand.

  2. Restart the Appliance so that the operating system can detect the expanded disks.

    NOTE:If no disks are listed, nothing is available to be expanded.

  3. In Storage , select the devices you want to expand, then click Expand partitions. This stops the Appliance services, expands the selected partitions, and the services are restarted.

  4. Restart the Appliance again so that the management software detects that the unallocated disk space has been used.
