Hi Dave, <div>Are you trying to modify the size of the tools volume for a cluster that&#39;s been around for a while and you customized already or could this be a new cluster?</div><div>The reason I&#39;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&#39;s needs. </div>

<div><br></div><div>Let me know if you need to modify an existing cluster and I&#39;ll guide you through the process then.</div><div><br></div><div>Enis<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Feb 16, 2012 at 9:31 PM, Dave Lin <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:dave@verdematics.com">dave@verdematics.com</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br>

<div> </div><div>I tried the following, but it didnt&#39; work for me.</div>
<div> </div><div>0) Terminate cluster.</div><div> </div><div>1) Amazon EC2- create snapshot of current galaxyTools volume</div><div>2) Amazon EC2- create volume from step 1 + specify desired volume size.</div><div>3) Amazon EC2- create new snapshot from Step 2.</div>


<div>4) Amazon S3- identify S3 bucket for this cluster. Modify persistent_data.yaml.  Modify size and snap_id to correspond with step #3</div><div>5) Amazon EC2-  Start new instance-- using same AmazonID + ClusterName</div>


<div> </div><div>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&#39;t seem work.</div><div> </div><div>Thanks in advance for any pointers.</div>
