https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-35173 

At times, it may be necessary to add more resources to the virtual machine Prime Infrastructure runs in.  Following are steps for adding a second virtual hard disk to Prime Infrastructure.

NOTE:  Making the existing virtual hard disk larger is not supported;  only adding an additional drive (or drives) is supported.

NOTE:  Always start any maintenance activity by knowing where the most recent backup is, or creating one. 

Step 1.  Shutdown Prime Infrastructure

     SSH to the Prime Infrastructure command line interface as the admin or other administrative user

     primeinfrastructure/admin# ncs stop
