Change the Workspace volume size

Volumes represent the storage space dedicated to your workspace or job. The default volume size for all workspaces and jobs in Domino is 10GiB, configurable by an administrator.

If your administrator enabled the feature, when you open a workspace you can select a volume size that is recommended by Domino based on your project size and previous usage.

Note
 In Git-based projects, the first workspace you open always uses the volume size configured in your project settings. Subsequent workspace launches receive volume provisioning recommendations.

You can change the size of your volume if you find that your workspace (or job) requires more storage space.

Change the size of your Workspace volume

  1. Go to your project and in the navigation pane click Settings.

  2. In Workspace and Jobs Volume Size, enter the new volume size. The default minimum volume size is 4GiB and the default maximum volume size is 200GiB. Your Domino administrator can change the default minimum and maximum volume size limits.

  3. Click Update.

    Important

    Changes to the volume size are applied to new workspaces. They do not impact existing workspaces.

Configure long-running Workspaces

Domino shuts down long-running workspaces after a period defined by your administrator. You can adjust this period to make it shorter. If you make a change, it applies to all workspaces owned by you.

  1. Click your account name.

  2. Click Account Settings:

  3. Click Workspace Settings.

    In the Workspace Settings section, you can see the automatic shutdown period defined by your administrator.

  4. Select Shutdown my long-running workspaces <n> minutes/hours after startup.

    Note
    		 If you leave the checkbox cleared, the time limit configured by your administrator applies.

  5. Select a different time limit for long-running workspaces.

    Note
    		 The shutdown time is the time since the workspace was started. The workspace shuts down automatically after it has been running for this period.
