If you’re seeing this sort of performance drop-off in your shared folders, NFS shared folders can offer a solution. As a project reaches 1000+ files, doing simple things like running unit tests or even just running an app server can be many orders of magnitude slower than on a native filesystem (e.g. It’s a long known issue that VirtualBox shared folder performance degrades quickly as the number of files in the shared folder increases. So my two cents: enable NFS like this in your Vagrantfile: config.vm.share_folder "v-root", "/vagrant", ".", :nfs => true

So the 1000+ files limit is quite easily reached.
EXPANDRIVE ON VM WINDOWS
On windows Host, the performance impact is less true.įor my very small website, I have kickly 12649 files. You can also attach disks using the Azure portal.I've seen similar problem on my OS X host, I forgot to enable NFS! If(($capability.Name -eq "EphemeralOSDiskSupported" -and $capability.Value -eq "True") -or ($capability.Name -eq "PremiumIO" -and $capability.Value -eq "True") -or ($capability.Name -eq "HyperVGenerations" -and $capability.Value -match "V2")) $vmSizes=Get-AzComputeResourceSku -Location $location | whereįoreach($capability in $vmSize.Capabilities) Set-AzContext -Subscription $subscriptionId Use the following PowerShell script to determine which VM SKUs it's available with: Connect-AzAccount If you're using a classic VM SKU, it might not support expanding disks without downtime. Right-click on existing C: drive partition -> Extend Volume.įollow the steps you should be able to see the disk with updated capacity:Įxpanding without downtime classic VM SKU support Start a remote desktop session with the VM. This extends the selected volume by size in megabytes (MB). This selects the volume volumenumber that you want to extend into contiguous, empty space on the same disk.Īt the DISKPART prompt, type extend. Make note of the volume you want to extend.Īt the DISKPART prompt, type select volume. This section covers connecting the VM using an RDP connection to expand the partition using DiskPart.Īt the DISKPART prompt, type list volume. There are several methods for expanding a partition. When you've expanded the disk for the VM, you need to go into the OS and expand the volume to encompass the new space. This section covers connecting the VM using an RDP connection to expand the partition using Using Diskpart or Using Disk Manager. Expand the volume in the operating system Remote into the VM, open Computer Management (or Disk Management) and expand the drive using the newly allocated space. When the command finishes executing, restart the VM: Start-AzVM -ResourceGroupName $rgName -Name $vmName Updating the VM might take a few seconds. (It is possible to expand the VHD blob beyond that size, but the OS works only with the first 4,095 GB of space.) The maximum allowed is 4,095 GB for OS disks. The new size should be greater than the existing disk size. Resize a managed disk in the Azure portal Use this script to get a list of classic VM SKUs that support expanding without downtime. Or an Azure Resource Manager template with an API version that's or newer.Not supported for Ultra disks or Premium SSD v2 disks.If a disk is already greater than 4 TiB, you can expand it without deallocating the VM and detaching the disk. If a disk is 4 TiB or less, you should deallocate your VM and detach the disk before expanding it beyond 4 TiB.This feature has the following limitations: The host cache setting of your disk doesn't change whether or not you can expand a data disk without deallocating your VM. You can expand data disks without deallocating your VM. Shrinking an existing disk isn’t supported and may result in data loss.Īfter expanding the disks, you need to Expand the volume in the operating system to take advantage of the larger disk. Unless you use Expand without downtime, expanding a data disk requires the VM to be deallocated.
