Hello.

I checked our PA box that PA 5000 series and old one that have diffrent hard-disk for logging is below.

- PA 5020

admin@PA-5020> show system disk-space

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on

/dev/md3 3.8G 1.3G 2.4G 34% /

/dev/md5 7.6G 2.0G 5.2G 28% /opt/pancfg

/dev/md6 3.8G 984M 2.7G 27% /opt/panrepo

tmpfs 1.8G 37M 1.7G 3% /dev/shm

/dev/md8 88G 4.8G 79G 6% /opt/panlogs

- PA-500

admin@PA-500-UQUEST> show system disk-space
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on

/dev/sda3 3.8G 1.2G 2.5G 32% /

/dev/sda5 7.6G 3.5G 3.8G 49%

/opt/pancfg/dev/sda6 3.8G 1.8G 1.9G 49%

/opt/panrepotmpfs 487M 37M 451M 8%

/dev/shm/dev/sda8 125G 13G 106G 11% /opt/panlogs

As you see above, PA-5020 has got the 88G logging partition and PA-500 series has got 125G logging partition.

Why above is different? I want to know why is diferent in detail.

Thanks

Regards.

Roh.

The models have different size for their HDD. The PA500 has a 160GB IDE HD while the PA5000 has a standard 120GB solid-state HD. The PA5000 can also be upgraded to increase the HD to 240GB. So the total disk space may vary according to the model.

You should also check the disk allocation in the web GUI under Device tab ==> Setup ==> Management widget. This allows you to change the disk space for the various log databases.

Thanks,
