DB System storage can be increased through a backup and restore operation or through an export and import operation. Both methods are described below.
To increase storage size using the backup and restore method:
Create a backup of the DB System. See Section 10.1, “Creating a Backup”.
Create a new DB System from the backup, and define a larger storage in the new DB System. See Section 10.3, “Restoring a Backup to a New DB System”.
To increase storage size using the import-export method:
Export the data from your current DB System using MySQL Shell. See Section 6.3, “Exporting Data with MySQL Shell”.
Use the MySQL HeatWave Console to create a new DB System with a larger storage size. See Section 3.2, “Creating a DB System”.
Import the data into the new DB System using MySQL Shell. See Chapter 6, Importing Data.
