<div>Tanks a lot Titus,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In fact, I got it to work yesterday afternoon following the excellent and detail steps of Eric Hammond:</div>
<div><a href="http://alestic.com/2010/02/ec2-resize-running-ebs-root">http://alestic.com/2010/02/ec2-resize-running-ebs-root</a> (one needs to have the EC2 CLI tools installed and configured on local computer thought)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I was then able to use the newly created AMI as my default in the StarCluster config.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Should keep this handy in STAR cluster FAQ/Mailing list</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Cheers,</div>

<div>This must be a very basic question but is there a way do define the size of the root volume? The current size is set to 8GB and I am 100% full</div>
<div></div>
<div>Sorry if this has been asked before or if it's obvious, but I search the documentation and the mailing list could not find an answer...</div>
