Virtual private servers (VPS) service in a private cloud. Users can create virtual machines with different hardware configurations to create persistent test environments or application deployments.

Virtual machines created from Ubuntu Desktop image don't automatically use their assigned space. In order to do so it is necessary to use parted and resize2fs after assigning desired space in the web interface.

$ sudo parted

$ sudo resize2fs /dev/sda5

$ df -h /
