Hi Enis, I installed a new test cluster earlier today and did notice that the new clusters magically now have galaxyTool volumes with 10GB. That is a good change. However, you are correct. I have an existing cluster (that had the old 2 GB volume size) that I'm trying to expand. With additional tools and log files, that volume keeps getting full. Can you help guide me through this process? Thanks again, Dave On Thu, Feb 16, 2012 at 2:36 PM, Enis Afgan <eafgan@emory.edu> wrote:
Hi Dave, Are you trying to modify the size of the tools volume for a cluster that's been around for a while and you customized already or could this be a new cluster? The reason I'm asking is because as of Tuesday (3 days ago), the default tools volume for any new cluster will be 10GB (vs 2GB previously) and only 1.7GB are taken. I would hope that gives plenty of storage space for majority of anyone's needs.
Let me know if you need to modify an existing cluster and I'll guide you through the process then.

Hi All,
What is the recommend process for expanding the galaxyTool volume for an existing galaxy instance (using EC2/cloudman)?
I tried the following, but it didnt' work for me.
0) Terminate cluster.
1) Amazon EC2- create snapshot of current galaxyTools volume 2) Amazon EC2- create volume from step 1 + specify desired volume size. 3) Amazon EC2- create new snapshot from Step 2. 4) Amazon S3- identify S3 bucket for this cluster. Modify persistent_data.yaml. Modify size and snap_id to correspond with step #3 5) Amazon EC2- Start new instance-- using same AmazonID + ClusterName
I was expecting the new instance to startup and create a galaxyTools volume based on the snapshot identified in the persistent_data.yaml file, but that didn't seem work.
Thanks in advance for any pointers. Dave
