Attaching a disk to your server

When you create your server, the system disk of your server will be automatically created and attached to your server. For a Gandi AI server, we will automatically create and attach the first data disk as well.

You may attach other disks to your servers in a couple of different ways later.

From your list of disks

If you have an available disk, you can click on the attach Icon on the right of the page to attach it to a server.

You can also use the bulk update dropdown tool on the lower left-hand corner, after selecting the disks you want to attach to a server.

From the disk's control panel

In your disk's interface (when you click on the disk in question), click on the “Add” link you see under “Attached server(s)”.

From the server's control panel

You can add a disk by clicking on “Modify” in the quick access point on the right of the page:

This will bring up the special Disk Attach interface, which works in the same way as adding from your list of disks (see above).

Alternatively, you can add a disk by scrolling down to the Disk Management section and click on the “Attach a disk” button.
