Hello @Liorme,

Please take a look at our documentation: [Managing Virtual Machines Instances — OpenNebula 6.6.2 documentation](https://docs.opennebula.io/6.6/management_and_operations/vm_management/vm_instances.html#resizing-vm-resources)

If you can’t solve your doubt there, please let us know.

Cheers,

Hi @Liorme ,

There is no way to limit the max size of a disk resize, other than using storage quotas. What you can do is to remove the ability to do a disk-resize for your users. Let me know if this is acceptable and I’ll provide hints on how to achieve it.
