# How-tos

- [Create a volume](https://docs.glesys.com/products/storage/file-storage/how-tos/create-a-volume.md): When creating a volume, you choose the storage size and whether it should be automatically promoted to a larger plan if the storage fills up. You also need to grant access to the volume explicitly.
- [Manage access to volumes](https://docs.glesys.com/products/storage/file-storage/how-tos/manage-access-to-volumes.md): By default, nobody is allowed access to a volume. Access must be explicitly given once the volume is ready.
- [Mount a volume](https://docs.glesys.com/products/storage/file-storage/how-tos/mount-a-volume.md): Mounting an NFS volume makes it appear in the operating system just like any other volume.
- [Resize a volume](https://docs.glesys.com/products/storage/file-storage/how-tos/resize-a-volume.md): Volumes can be resized as needed.
- [Delete a volume](https://docs.glesys.com/products/storage/file-storage/how-tos/delete-a-volume.md): Deleting a volume deletes all data stored in it.
- [Clients and tooling](https://docs.glesys.com/products/storage/file-storage/how-tos/clients-and-tooling.md): Example clients and tools you can use with Glesys File Storage.
- [Getting started with Docker and Glesys File Storage](https://docs.glesys.com/products/storage/file-storage/how-tos/clients-and-tooling/getting-started-with-docker-and-glesys-file-storage.md): You can use Glesys File Storage as a persistent storage solution in Docker.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.glesys.com/products/storage/file-storage/how-tos.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
