The size of the root disk is set based on the template, and it can't be changed. This has to do with the fact that new root volumes created from a template are actually created as a writable snapshot of the template. This is done to save space and also to create the VM faster, but the penalty is that all instances created from a template share the same size root volume.

I see it uses the template's size (which in my case is tiny) and I need to have it increased. Pointers? Thanks, Lucian -- Sent from the Delta quadrant using Borg technology! Nux! www.nux.ro
