Support for resize option

Open thechile opened this issue 9 years ago • 2 comments

Is there any plans to add a resize option ? If i have a mysql container that i started with --size 50G and later find i need to increase this to 200G it would be nice to have a convoy command that i can pass the continaer id and new target size.

thanks

Maybe could be done with multiple steps by create a new volume and migrate the data (convoy backup, restore)?

It's not something we can easily support unless low level driver is well fit for it. I know device mapper may be fine and vfs doesn't care about size. But EBS you will need to migrate to larger volume rather than simply resize it (see http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ebs-expand-volume.html )
