Overview
This article explains how to extend your ASGARD's disk space after exhausting all storage cleanup options.
The Debian system running your Analysis Cockpit is configured with LVM (Logical Volume Manager), which allows you to extend the disk space of the Analysis Cockpit. This is useful if you have a lot of data to analyze and the disk space is not sufficient.
Prerequisites
This chapter assumes you already attached a second disk or increased the disk space of your existing disk via your hypervisor. If you have not done so, please refer to the documentation of your hypervisor on how to attach a second disk or increase the disk space of your existing disk.
Please make sure that you create a snapshot of your Analysis Cockpit before proceeding with the following steps.
This will allow you to revert to the previous state in case something goes wrong! This is very important since you are actively changing the disk space of your Analysis Cockpit. You could lose data if something goes wrong!
Expected result
ASGARD has sufficient disk space for normal operation.
Steps to reproduce
We distinguish between two scenarios:
-
Scenario 1: Extending Disk Space by Attaching a Second Disk to the Analysis Cockpit
-
Scenario 2: Extending ASGARD Disk Space by Increasing Disk Size and Resize File System
In this example, we are using the Analysis Cockpit. However, these instructions can also be applied to other ASGARD products.
