incorrect disk size

Hello, Jakub,

Thanks for contacting us.

Regarding the issue that you are facing about resizing the storage of one of your VMs, I would like to mention that this probably happened because it’s necessary to resize the OS capacity. There are multiple options, and some of them are:

  1. You could include commands at the startup script, but that would depend on your configuration.
  2. You can check the link to directly resize the OS VM.
  3. If the previous option does not work, you could detach the disk from the instance, then attach it to an instance that is working properly, resize the partition and/or check any possible conflict in the tmp folders and reattach the disk to the instance (this option should be considered a last resort, I strongly recommend following the 2nd one).

By the way, I recommend performing a snapshot before proceeding. After the snapshot, please reboot the instance, and the disk should be expanded automatically. Let me know your results.

Best regards,

Erick
