Expand disk or add new disk to big-ip VE
Here are some unofficial options:
The OVA only comes with 100GB so it's hard to maintain 3 different Volumes within that.
There are 3 options to resolve this:
1) Delete an existing volume (the one you're not upgrading from and not upgrading to) Go to System -> Disk Management -> Click on HD1. Under Contained Software Volumes and Contained Application Volumes, select the HD1.X that you want to delete and hit "Delete..." Once deleted and only two Volumes in use you should be able to upgrade from one to the other.
2) Remove the reserved space:
Go to System -> Disk Management -> Click on HD1 Under Mode, use Mixed and enter 0 under "Reserved" This will free up some space and that might just be enough to let you use 3 volumes.
3) Extend the disk space:
This is a non official procedure (which is working) which allows users to extend their VMware disk in order to be able to add more Volumes.
See here for the steps: http://pastebin.com/S2ZzyvtB
I'll add them to this post once the word per post limit on DC is increased.
