FortiSandbox provides a solution to protect against advanced threats and ransomware for companies who don’t want to implement and maintain a sandbox environment on their own.
This article describes how to resize the disk on the FortiSandbox-VM version.
Scope
FortiSandbox v3.x, v4.x, v5.x.
Solution

Tips: Create a snapshot from the Hypervisor before running the 'resize-hd' command.
Procedure:
Create a snapshot from hypervisor / ESXI (optional, but recommended).
Open the console/terminal to the VM from the hypervisor.
Log in to FortiSandbox from the Hypervisor console/terminal.
