Hello all, is there any guide how to read disk-partition on firewall?

i see that the logs on the firewall is panlogs, but i still don't know what the other partition function. and why the panraid/ldl is high than the other partition

Hi @DennyChanditya ,

“Session log storage” is stored in "/opt/panraid/ld1".
And when the logs are full, the old logs will be purged.

Hi @DennyChanditya ,

Good point.

panlogs is home of several logtypes:

It seems opt/panraid/ld1 is the raid log disk. If you have access to the cli you can check the raid status:

> show system raid detail

> less mp-log raid.log
