If the underlying storage is increased, is there a way to increase a virtual disk's size in StarWind San & Nas?

Thanks

Greetings Jase,

Thank you for your question. May I ask you how the storage is connected to the VM? In other words, do you use RDM, pass-through, or thick disks?

Try edit virtual disk settings and set the new size for a virtual disk. (In Main Menu, Storage -> Manage Virtual Disks). Later, select the pool -> Maintenance -> Check Usable Capacity.
