[jira] [Resolved] (CLOUDSTACK-9670) cannot online resize volume attached on running VM

["Rafael Weingärtner (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-9670?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Rafael Weingärtner resolved CLOUDSTACK-9670.
--------------------------------------------
    Resolution: Won't Fix

XenServer does not suppport online resizing of VDIs. The parameter online should actually be removed from XAPI as it is a leftover from an implementation that was not working.

> Dear CS Contributors
> xenserver support online resize with this xapi call:
> xe vdi-resize uuid=<VDI UUID> online=true disk-size=<NEW SIZE>
> cf. http://discussions.citrix.com/topic/293389-resize-a-xenserver-windows-vm-virtual-disk-without-shutdown/
> Cloudstack should use this instead of showing the error:
> "The VM must be stopped or the disk detached in order to resize with the XenServer Hypervisor.";
> cf. https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/blob/master/server/src/com/cloud/storage/VolumeApiServiceImpl.java#L1119
> Best Regards
