Step 1: Take Snapshot of EBS Volume (to be Safe).
Step 2: Increase EBS Volume Size in AWS Console.
Step 3: Extend a Linux file system after resizing a volume.
Command to Extend the file system:
===========================================================
df -hT
Check whether the volume has a partition:
sudo lsblk
Extend the partition:

Will resizing the EBS volume attached to a PRODUCTION EC2 instance hosting a website result in any downtime during the resizing process?

When you increase the volume, for example if currently my instance has 100GB and I would like to add another 50 GB, should I put size 50GB or I need to add it from the current size 100GB+50GB and with that I have to put 150GB?

[@amonkincloud]

Yes

[@Paul-AWS]

it looks like all my space was used up so it was struggling to extend the storage, fresh start. Terminate instance and increase volume from the start of AMI to 30 GB free for the first year - right :) I didn't realise they were only giving 8GB on Linux platform

[@caesarsage]

Does this replace the root ebs volume with this new one and can i use this method to reduce the ebs ?

[@amonkincloud]

It is not recommended to alter the root volume

[@atchimule]

Df -hT command will work windows ec2 as well?

[@amonkincloud]

Nope

[@debugk9926]

while resizing 8g to the 20g is there any data loss, no right?

[@amonkincloud]

Nope you have the back up

[@subbukakarla4569]

Hi , can you do a video about resizing the volumes using autoscaling

[@amonkincloud]

Did not get your question

[@subbukakarla4569]

I want a video on, Ebs under-provisioned volumes and Ebs over-provisioned volumes...the volume resizes should be done with autoscaling appraoch

[@user-zl3sn6ty5s]

Sir how we can extend the partition if filesystem is vfat?

[@amonkincloud]

Not sure about vfat

[@charpunk]

Once the instance size has been increased, how long after the snapshot has to be deleted?

[@amonkincloud]

Sorry didn’t get your question

[@user-fb5wy4ni2t]

should i delete the snapshot after that

[@amonkincloud]

Yes if the restoration is ✅

[@sachinrana884]

Helllo sir how to go in terminal plz reply 🥺

[@amonkincloud]

Sorry didn’t get your question. Can you please elaborate

[@sachinrana884]

@@amonkincloudIn this video, after increasing the storage volume, there is a command step, how to do that 🥺 1:16

[@amonkincloud]

Connect to the instance using Instance Connect method or SSH
