How to increase zvol for an instance?

Apps and Virtualization

Hello,

to increase the root disk for an instance seems pretty simple. Just click on change under the disk settings for a VM. But how can I increase the size of a zvol that I want to use as a second disk in a VM?

kind regards

zfs set volsize=<newsize> <pool>/<path>/<to>/<zvol>

Make double sure newsize ist not smaller than the current one or you will probably lose data. You can check the current size with

zfs get volsize <pool>/<path>/<to>/<zvol>

HTH,
Patrick

This zvol has no path in a dataset?

What do you get with

zfs list -t volume

?

Thank you. With that info i managed to resize the volume. In my Case to go from 10GiB to 20GiB:

zfs set volsize=20GiB hdd-01/.ix-virt/custom/default_syncthing-vault
