This guide will walk you through the process of resizing an existing file share in the EUMETSAT Shared File System (SFS). Ensure you follow the steps carefully to prevent data loss and ensure a smooth expansion of your file share.

Pre-requisites

  1. Ensure the server and file share are already created.
  2. Network Configuration:
    • Ensure the VMs that need to access the SFS have the appropriate network configuration as per the guidelines in the document mentioned above.

Steps to Resize the File Share

  1. Login to Morpheus
  2. Navigate to File Shares from the Morpheus portal using Infrastructure → Storage → File Shares
  3. Edit the File Share

    • Once you have the file share open, click on the Actions → Edit button.

  4. Increase the FIle Share Size

    • In the edit menu, look for the option to increase the size of the file share.

    • Set the new size as per your use case requirements.

  5. Confirm the New Size

      • Note: Once the file share size is increased, it cannot be shrunk. So, be sure that the new size will meet your future needs.
      • Double-check the size before confirming the change.
