## Resize Disk Using limactl

Starting with v1.1, Lima supports editing the disk size of an existing instance using the `--disk` flag with the `limactl edit` command.

This is the recommended and simplest way to resize your VM disk.

12
+
```sh
13
+
limactl edit <vm-name> --disk <new-size>
14
+
```

Example for 20GB:

+
18
+
```sh
19
+
limactl edit default --disk 20
20

```
