Hi,
I have deployed the Wordpress TKL as a VM on VMware. Works great since a long time.
Now I see the free space becoming too low after some years due to all media inside Wordpress.
What do I need to do to grow the capacity of the TKL VM appliance? On VMware side I have grown the size of the VMDK file but what do I need to do to grow the space inside Linux?
Kr,
Bart
