Show volumes attached to C9 on editor view

Question

Hi,

I want to add space to my C9 EC2 machine by adding a new volume instead of expanding the current volume.

Today I can toggle the option "Show home in favorites" to browse the files on the home root volume, but after I attach the new volume, can't find the way to browse the content from the C9 file tree browser. ( I can access it from the command line).

Is there a way to do this or I would need to keep adding space to my root volume instead?.

Answer

You will need to add to the existing volume.  Here are the commands to make it happen.

```
## Assume a role with permissions

SIZE=50
INSTANCEID=$(curl http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/instance-id)
REGION=$(curl -s http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/placement/availability-zone | sed 's/$.*$[a-z]/\1/')
VOLUMEID=$(aws ec2 describe-instances --instance-id $INSTANCEID --query "Reservations[0].Instances[0].BlockDeviceMappings[0].Ebs.VolumeId" --output text --region $REGION)

aws ec2 modify-volume --volume-id $VOLUMEID --size $SIZE --region $REGION

```
Wait until finished, check with this:
```
aws ec2 describe-volumes-modifications --region $REGION --volume-id $VOLUMEID

```
After finished
```
lsblk
sudo growpart /dev/nvme0n1 1
df -h
sudo xfs_growfs /dev/nvme0n1p1
df -h

```
