Scaling Up Storage Space

Scenarios

This section describes how to scale up the storage space of a DB instance to suit your service requirements.

During the scale-up process, the DB instance will not restart, and your services will not be interrupted.

Precautions

Storage space can only be scaled up. It cannot be scaled down.

Procedure

1. Log in to the GeminiDB console.
2. On the Instances page, click the target instance name.
3. In the Storage Space area on the Basic Information page, click Scale.
4. On the displayed page, specify the new storage capacity and click Next.

   Select at least 1 GB each time you scale up the storage, and the storage size must be an integer.

5. On the displayed page, confirm the storage space.
   • If you need to modify your settings, click Previous to go back to the page where you specify details.
   • If you do not need to modify your settings, click Submit to scale up the storage space.

6. Check the scale-up result.
   • The status of the DB instance in the instance list is Scaling up.
   • After the scale up is completed, the DB instance status becomes Available.
   • In the Storage Space area on the Basic Information page, check whether the scale up was successful.
