Template - Root disk size changes

[Gaspare A Silvestri <g....@netsons.com>]

Hello everybody,

is it possibleincreasing the root disk size on a predefined template?

What I'm trying to sayisthat if I'll deploy a template with a thin disk 
starting from 10GB, for example, and I will decide to create an instance 
with 50GB HDD, is this extension automatically performed by 
CloudStack?Or have I got to create many different templates with 
different root disk sizes?

Thanks in advance,

Gaspare

Thank you for your quick reply.

This means that I will able to extend the additional disks created by 
the users, is this right? Is this correct even if I will use vSphere 5.x 
as hypervisor platform?

Thank you for your attention.

AFAIK, you need to create another template with different size if you
need. In 4.2, some enhancements happened for DATADISK but not for ROOT
disk.

Here is the link for DATADISK resize feature :
