# Manage volumes in an application volume group for Oracle
You can manage a volume from its volume group. You can resize, delete, or change throughput for the volume.
## Steps
1. From your NetApp account, select **Application volume groups**.
Select a volume group to display the volumes in the group.
2. Select the volume you want to resize, delete, or change throughput. The volume overview will be displayed.
3. From **Volume Overview**, you can select:
* **Edit**
You can change individual volume properties:
* Protocol type
* Hide snapshot path
* Snapshot policy
* Unix permissions
> [!NOTE]
> Changing the protocol type involves reconfiguration at the Linux host. When using dNFS, it's not recommended to mix volumes using NFSv3 and NFSv4.1.
> [!NOTE]
> Using Azure NetApp Files built-in automated snapshots doesn't create database consistent backups. Instead, use data protection software such as [AzAcSnap](azacsnap-introduction.md), [SnapCenter](https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/snapcenter/protect-azure/protect-applications-azure-netapp-files.html), or other [validated partner solutions](../storage/solution-integration/validated-partners/backup-archive-disaster-recovery/partner-overview.md) that support snapshot-based data protection for Oracle.
* **Change Throughput**
You can adapt the throughput of the volume.
