You can try these:

    Backup Your Data: Before making any changes to your VM, create a backup or snapshot of the VM's current state. This ensures that you can restore the VM if anything goes wrong during the disk size reduction process.

    Identify Unused Data: Within the VM's operating system, identify and remove any unnecessary files, logs, temporary data, or applications that you no longer need. This step can help free up space before resizing the disk.

    Shut Down the VM: Before resizing the VM's disk, it's recommended to shut down the VM. This ensures data integrity during the resizing process.

    Access Sangfor Cloud HCI Interface: Log in to the Sangfor Cloud HCI management interface or dashboard. Look for the specific VM you want to resize and find the options related to disk management or VM settings.

    Resize Virtual Disk: Locate the option to resize the virtual disk of the VM. This might involve specifying a new disk size or using sliders to adjust the size. Follow the prompts and confirm the action.

    Apply Changes: Once you've resized the virtual disk, apply the changes. This action might require confirming the changes or initiating a resizing process.

    Start the VM: After resizing the disk, start the VM. It might take a little longer for the VM to boot up as the filesystem adjusts to the new disk size.

    Resize Filesystem: Log in to the VM and resize the filesystem to utilize the newly allocated space. This involves using appropriate commands based on the filesystem type, such as resize2fs for ext-based filesystems or xfs_growfs for XFS filesystems.

    Verify and Test: Test the VM thoroughly to ensure that it's functioning correctly after the disk size reduction. Check your applications, services, and data to make sure everything is intact.

    Clean Up Snapshots/Backups: If you're satisfied with the changes and the VM is working as expected, you can consider deleting any snapshots or backups you took before the resizing process.
