Auto-scale Quota

The Auto-scale Quota feature in vStorage allows you to set up automatic storage expansion based on your usage and needs. This guide will provide details on how to configure and manage this feature through the vStorage Portal.

To set up automatic growth for a project, you can:

  1. In the project that needs to set Auto-scale Quota, select the icon then select Auto-scale and continue to select Configure Auto-scale or select the icon then select Set Auto-scale.

  2. At the Auto-scale configuration screen , set up the necessary parameters for Auto Scale . Specifically:

  • Set Quota Unit: you can choose 1 of 2 types of units including GB or Percent.

  • Set Quota Threshold or Quota Remain: If you choose Quota Unit as Percent , here you will enter the percentage of usage threshold that when reached will trigger the quota increase. If you choose Quota Unit as GB , here you will enter the remaining quota that when reached will trigger the quota increase.

  • Set Quota Increment Level : enter desired increment level in GB or Percent.

Attention:

  • The vStorage system will perform a 5-minute auto-scaling check to automatically increase capacity based on the set threshold.

  • The price is applied according to the standard vStorage price list , the feature only increases capacity without changing the Storage Class.

  • Users need to ensure that they have sufficient credit balance for their account (prepaid) before performing Auto-scaling.

  • If the capacity increase fails , the user will receive an email notification. After two consecutive auto-scaling failures, our system will stop sending email notifications to you. You need to proactively access vStorage to manually resize the project according to the instructions above.
