Resizing Server Storage Capacity

You can increase (upgrade) or decrease (downgrade) your VPS storage capacity at any time via the MyTilaa dashboard.

Important distinction:
  • Increasing storage: Your data is safe. A simple reboot is required to apply changes.
  • Decreasing storage: Due to technical limitations, this requires a fresh install. All data on the VPS will be permanently lost. Please create a backup first.

Quick Steps:

  1. Go to VPS > Select your server.
  2. Click on Resize Server.
  3. Adjust the slider to your desired storage capacity.
  4. Confirm the changes (and acknowledge data loss if downgrading).

Step-by-step Guide

  1. Navigate to the VPS section and click on the server you wish to resize.

    Select VPS in dashboard

  2. On the VPS Overview page, click the Resize Server button.

    Click Resize Server button

  3. Choose your new configuration.
    Select the desired amount of storage space.

    • If you increase space: No re-installation is needed.
    • If you decrease space: A warning will appear indicating a fresh install is required.

  4. Confirm the changes.
    Review your choice. If you are downgrading, you must confirm that you understand all data will be lost. Click to finalize the process.

    Confirm resize changes

Note: After increasing storage, don't forget to reboot your server to make the new space available to your operating system.
