SSB can only use fixed disk space assigned to the virtual host. If you must increase the size of the virtual disk, complete the following steps.
Prerequisites:
The following prerequisites are essential for the resize procedure to work:
-
The machine that SSB is running on has to be a virtual machine. This procedure will not work on a physical machine.
-
The version running on the virtual machine must be a newly installed SSB version 4.9 or later. This procedure will not work in case of an SSB that was upgraded from an earlier version.
-
No software RAID.
