Resizing an AWS macOS EC2 instance’s boot drive to use all available disk space
I’ve started working with Amazon Web Service’s new macOS EC2 instances and after a while, I noticed that no matter how much EBS drive space I assigned to a EC2 instance running macOS, the instance would only have around 30 GBs of usable space. In this example, I had assigned around 200 GBs of EBS storage, but the APFS container was only using around 30 GBs of the available space.
After talking with AWS Support, there’s a fix for this using APFS container resizing. This is a topic I’ve discussed previously in the context of resizing boot drives for virtual machines. For more details, see below the jump.
To resize a macOS EC2 instance’s boot volume, you need to do two things:
1. Identify the appropriate APFS container:
APFS containers act as storage pools for APFS volumes. APFS volumes are what act as the mounted filesystem, where you store your files, directories, metadata, etc. When you grow the APFS container, the APFS volumes will likewise get additional space.
To identify the container for the instance’s boot volume, use the command shown below:
/usr/sbin/diskutil list physical external | awk '/Apple_APFS/ {print $7}'
2. Once the appropriate APFS container has been identified, use diskutil to resize the container with all available disk space.
You can specify a size of zero (0) to grow the targeted container using all unallocated drive space.
/usr/sbin/diskutil apfs resizeContainer apfs_container_id_goes_here 0
In this example, I have an instance where my APFS-formatted boot drive is using 32 GBs of space, but the instance has 200 GBs of available EBS disk space.
Assuming that the command above gave us disk1s2 as a result, the command shown below can be used to resize the boot drive’s APFS container with all available disk space.

Once the container resizing has completed, the OS should now recognize and be able to use the now-allocated space.
This can be confirmed by other disk space measuring tools.
