The Disk Auto Scaling feature is optional; enabling it will automatically resize your node's disk by 30% when its utilization exceeds 70%. Also, you can manually resize your node's disk and resources whenever needed. You can change this setting in the node side window's Maintenance tab at any time after launching.

The Protocol Version Auto Upgrade feature is optional; enabling it will keep your node running with the latest version, avoiding the risk of forks and node unsyncing when the protocol version is out-of-date. Also, you can manually upgrade your node's protocol version whenever needed. You can change this setting in the node side window's Maintenance tab at any time after launching.
