Resizing a Graph

If the storage capacity, computing capability, or service capability of a graph cannot meet service requirements, you can resize the graph.

• Currently, 10,000-edge and 10-billion-edge graphs cannot be resized.
• After the graph is resized, you need to re-create all indexes including composite indexes and full-text indexes.

The procedure is as follows:

1. Log in to the GES management console. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Graph Management.
2. In the graph list, locate the row containing the graph you want to resize, click More in the Operation column, and select Resize.

3. In the displayed dialog box, select the target specifications. You can only select higher specifications. For example, a graph with 1 million edges can be changed to 10 million, 100 million, 1 billion, or 10 billion edges.

4. Click OK. The graph status changes to Preparing for resize. After several minutes, the graph status changes to Resizing. When the resize is complete, the graph status changes to Running.
