Increasing the size of size of tmpfs

Hi,

I have a doubt, is it possible to increase the size of tmpfs.

I need to modify the /etc/fstab file to define the size of tmpfs and also to define the number of inodes which may used by tmpfs. Is it possible to increase like that?

I am using a OpenVZ VPS.

    Sure you can, does mount -t tmpfs -oremount,nr_inodes=1000,size=1G none /tmp not work for you?

    Do I need to restart the server after this?

    No, in fact you'll lose the changes if you reboot unless you persist those options in /etc/fstab.
