I wouldn't try it, but it is possible if you use VMWare: https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... M-Disk.pdf

Please note:
VMware ESX Server has the capability to change virtual disk size with the VM running. DO NOT do this, as it is confirmed to be unstable for some setups and environments. Shutdown the VM before making any changes to the virtual disk.
You could try just getting rid of some old or unnecessary files. du -hsx * | sort -rh | head -10 should help you determine what is taking up so much space.

No, you don't need to rebuild it. You almost certainly will need to repair it though: https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... tabase.pdf
