Increasing Size of disk0 in vRealize Automation 7.6

I have been trying to increase the size of Disk0 in vRA, which I thought would be an easy task, but I can't figure out how to do it.

In the Blueprint, it's greyed out in the Storage Tab.

If I try to edit VirtualMachine.Disk0.size in the properties tab, I get an error saying "Specify Storage Properties in the storage tab"

I found an old forum post saying this was a known issue in 7.0, but surely thats been fixed by now.

How to make a user be able to increase default disk size during blueprint request?

On a side note, is it possible to increase the size of a VMs Disk0 through an action?

You cannot increase the size of disk0, because that's defined in the template. Nor should you try. If you need additional space, it should be provisioned and allocated in a new disk.

You can increase size disk0 but after provisining VM.

Just try to reconfigure VM. It should work (i tested it on 7.5 version).
