Cannot set application disk quota through CLI

[trastle]

It is not possible to set an application's disk quota from the CLI using a CF push. However it is possible to do this via the CF API and the manifest.yml this is not consistent.

We have some users who need to set the disk quota, explaining to them how to use cf curl is pretty rough. It is possible to add this to the CLI?

Notes

It is possible to set the disk quota for an application using the application's manifest.yml.
The required property is disk_quota:

---
applications:
- name: testapp-large-disk
  memory: 512M
  instances: 1
  disk_quota: 3072
  path: .

Setting the disk quota manually

There is currently no CLI command to set the disk quota for an app, however it is supported by the Cloud Foundry REST API. This means you can set the disk quota using the cf curl command.

$ cf curl /v2/apps

# Find the metadata.guid for the app you want to increase the disk quota of

$ cf curl /v2/apps/[APP-GUID-HERE] -X PUT -d '{"disk_quota":2048}'

Hi,

Thanks for raising this issue. It looks like there is a story in the CLI team's backlog to implement this feature, and will be prioritized at the discretion of the CLI PM.

Unless you object, we will close this issue and further discussion can continue on that tracker story.

Thanks and regards,

Thanks, @thecadams.

Yes, @trastle, we are in the middle of several stories to add disk to 'cf scale' and 'cf push'. Have a look at the backlog toward the end of next week to see them: https://www.pivotaltracker.com/n/projects/892938

fwiw, we'll probably get to them sooner, but that's the priority for now.

Thanks @scottruitt, @thecadams and @drich10

Should I be able to view the tracker at:

It would be interesting to have a look but I can't hit the URL.

Ah, looks like Tracker Next, which we've been dog-fooding internally, is not yet public. Here's a working link: https://www.pivotaltracker.com/s/projects/892938
