How do I increase a storage quota for a machine?

Replace the subscription assigned to the machine with another subscription that has a larger storage quota. The new subscription has the same type as the old one. For example, you can replace a workstation subscription only with another workstation subscription with a larger quota.

The storage quota increase is free of charge. After the completion, the operation cannot be reverted.

The new subscription will have a lesser subscription period. It is calculated in the following way:

Pn = Po * (Qo / Qn)

where

• Pn – new subscription remaining period
• Po – old subscription remaining period
• Qo – old subscription storage quota
• Qn – new subscription storage quota.

Example. You have a 250 GB subscription and you decide to increase its storage quota 2 months before the subscription expiration. The new subscription storage quota is 500 GB. So, the new subscription remaining period will be

Pn = 2 months * (250 GB / 500 GB) = 1 month

To increase a storage quota

1. Go to the account management Web page.
2. Select the machine for which you want to increase a storage quota, and then click Increase.
3. If the existing subscription has the maximum available storage quota for this subscription type, the software notifies you. Otherwise, select the new storage quota.
4. Click Increase, and then click OK to confirm the operation.
