After you deploy the Avaya Breeze® platform profile, use vCenter or vSphere to modify the hard disk size that is allocated to each Avaya Breeze® platform VM within the cluster. You can modify the hard disk size based on the required capacity.
Note:
Ensure that the hard disk size is the same for each Avaya Breeze® platform VM within the cluster.
Do not perform this procedure if you are using SDM to deploy the OVA.
Before you begin
Modifying the hard disk size might affect the service. Ensure that you set the Presence Services cluster to Deny New Service mode before you modify the hard disk size of the Avaya Breeze® platform VM. For more information, see Disabling Avaya Breeze® platform cluster running Presence Services.
  1. Shut down each Breeze server in the cluster. Do one of the following:
    • Log in as root in the Linux CLI. At the command prompt, type poweroff.
    • On the System Manager web console, navigate to ElementsAvaya Breeze®Server Administration.
      Select the server that you want to shut down, and then click Shutdown system. Ensure that the server is in a deny state before you shut it down.
  2. Log in to vCenter or vSphere VMware management client by using administrator credentials.
  3. Navigate to the virtual machine that contains the Breeze server instance and ensure that the virtual machine is turned off.
  4. Click ConfigureVM Hardware, and then verify the current hard disk size.
  5. Click Actions.
  6. Click Edit Settings.
  7. Select hard disk 1, and then increase the hard disk size to the required capacity.
  8. Click OK.
  9. Start the virtual machine.
  10. After the virtual machine starts, log in to the Linux CLI.
  11. At the command prompt, type lsblk to verify the size of the main hard disk.
    STEP RESULT:
    The result of the lsblk command shows hard disk 1 as either sda or vda.
  12. Repeat Step 2 to Step 11 for each Breeze server in the cluster. Ensure that all the hard disks in the cluster are of the same size.
  13. Set the mode of the Presence Services cluster to Accept New Service mode. For more information, see Enabling Avaya Breeze® platform running Presence Services.
