DCE VM NFS

[DCIM_Support]

Hi,

We have increased the NFS storage by 100 GB to 200 GB but within DCE it is still showing its previous value see below how can i get it to show the correct value I have ran a sync backup and rebooted the machine!

TIA

Hi Mike,

How did you increase the size? Did you add a new drive? Did you configure / format the share to allow for a higher usage? Have you since rebooted the server or tried to disconnect / reconnect the drive within DCE? This appears to be a VM with it's 4G default drive and maybe another 10gig VM drive. The 100 Gig appears to be a shared drive and you stated it is NFS.

I'm unsure how increasing the size of the attached drive works after DCE has already configured itself to use that drive.

HI Steve,

The client has increased the size of the drive to 200GB so the data history can be kept a while longer and correct this is a VM.

I'm guessing a rebuild of DCE and restore from backup is the only was the additional space will be recognized??

Cheers,

Hi Mike,

Shouldn't need to rebuild. I would try simply a reboot of the system if you haven't already done so. As I mentioned, I don't know how it works if you try to increase a drive's size once it is used but that doesn't mean you can't add other drives. You could create another share and that should be seen and used by DCE.

You can also add another drive within the VM host. Although you can't increase the default drive size, you can add another VM drive within the edit settings option of the host:
