How to expand vultr disk?

vultr expand disk

Vultr is a cloud computing service company that provides a wide range of services, including virtual private servers (VPS). I

We are using a Vultr VPS, we need to increase the server’s disk capacity to suit expanding data demands. Here’s how to add more disk space to a Vultr server:

  1. Then, log in to your Vultr account and pick the server for which we wish to increase storage space.
  2. By hitting the “Stop” button, you can bring the server to a halt.
  3. Next, pick the “Resize” option from the “Options” menu.
  4. A new window will appear, displaying the current disk size and available disk space. Specify the new disk size we wish to use, then click the “Resize” button.
  5. After the resizing process is finished, launch the server by clicking the “Start” button. This is the next step in setting up the vultr expand disk.
  6. After the server is up and running, we’ll need to get in through SSH and enlarge the file system to make use of the extra disk space.
  7. To view the server’s current partitions, type “sudo fdisk -l”.
    Determine which partition needs to be resized and use the command “sudo resize2fs /dev/[partition-name]” to resize it.

  8. When the resize procedure is finished, execute the command “df -h” to validate the new disk space.

Increasing disk space on a Vultr server is simple, but it’s critical to take the required steps to avoid data loss or damage. Make a backup of any vital data on the server before increasing the drive.
