Resizing Disk, CPU and Memory

Trainers can change the resources originally provisioned for the Fresh-Start Desktop.  This proves useful when you realise the course needs more CPU, memory, or storage for additional programs or software.  

To change these parameters, you must ensure the Fresh-Start desktop is stopped before modifying the values.  Select the gear icon and use either "Stop" or "Force-Stop" to halt the desktop.

 

Once the desktop is stopped, you can resize the allocated resources.  Select the gear icon and navigate to advanced > Resize (RAM, CPU, disk).

Once selected, the Resize form will appear, allowing you to re-allocate the resources (CPU, RAM, or Storage) you need for your desktop.  The form shows the maximum amount permitted for each.

Bear in mind that these changes affect the desktop's price, but we recommend allocating what you need to ensure the course runs smoothly.
