The capacity of a VMware Server 2.0 virtual disk may be increased from within the VMware Infrastructure (VI) Web Access management interface. This is a web based interface which can be accessed by starting a browser, either on the host system on which VMware Server is running, or on any other system which has network access to the host.
 
== Accessing VI Web Access ==
During the VMware Server 2.0 installation process, the installer prompted for port numbers to be used for both HTTP and HTTPS based access to the VI Web Access interface. The defaults suggested were 8222 and 8333 respectively. If other ports were specified during installation the following examples will need to be modified accordingly.

== Increasing VMware Server Virtual Disk Capacity ==
Virtual disks cannot be re-sized while any virtual machines which use the disk are powered on. Before proceeding, therefore, power off any virtual machines which share the virtual disk. Once these virtual machines are powered off, select a virtual machine which uses the virtual disk from the ''Inventory'' panel of the VI Web Access interface, click on the required hard disk from the Hardware panel and select ''Edit...'' from the menu. Once the disk settings dialog appears, click on the Increase capacity... link to display the disk capacity fields as illustrated in the following figure:
