= InstaGENI/ProtoGENI extra disk space =
To get extra disk space on your PG/IG VMs you will need to do two steps:
1. request it in your rspec
1. mount it once your VM is booted
== 1. RSpec modification ==
You can specify memory, cores and disk space for your IG/PG VMs using the following rspec tag which is a child of sliver_type:
{{{
}}}
An example of a complete rspec:

== 2. Mount the space ==
What you have to do is login to the VM after it is reserved and run these
commands:
{{{
sudo bash
/usr/testbed/bin/mkextrafs /mnt
exit
Then you should see a new device that will look like:
/dev/xvda4 7.9G 147M 7.4G 2% /mnt
