Getting Data In

How do I change storage dynamically?

Has anyone ever run into issues with dynamically adding storage to a mount point in Splunk?

Are there any considerations or issues that can arise? I can't think of any settings that specifically relate to the storage size for the mount point so I think it should be pretty much invisible to Splunk. Thanks for any experience or cautions about this.

The only setting that relates to storage size would be if you use volumes and you set a volume size using the maxVolumeDataSizeMB setting. If you're not using volumes, then you are all set.
