Expand AWS Data Partition

[Charles Herring]

By default, the /data partition on AWS nodes are 200GB. You can expand the size by Modifying the volume using standard AWS practices: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/requesting-ebs-volume-modifications.html

Make sure the expanded volume is recognized by the file system: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/recognize-expanded-volume-linux.html

After resizing the instance partition in AWS and files system, run the following commands to allow the WitFoo Precinct to use the new space:

sudo service superintendent stop ; sudo growpart /dev/nvme1n1 5 ; sudo resize2fs /dev/nvme1n1p5 ; sudo service superintendent start
