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
