SYSTEM ALERT : high : Not enough space to load conent to SHM after upgrading PA820 to PanOS 10.0.3

idelconsulting — Sun, 31 Jan 2021 11:27:23 GMT

Dear all.

I upgraded last night to PanOS 10.0.3 and this morning I'm getting error messages from the firewall:

SYSTEM ALERT : high : Not enough space to load conent to SHM

admin@xxx> show system disk-space

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/root 9.5G 2.7G 6.4G 30% /
none 2.0G 68K 2.0G 1% /dev
/dev/sda5 19G 4.1G 14G 23% /opt/pancfg
/dev/sda6 7.6G 2.0G 5.2G 29% /opt/panrepo

cgroup_root 2.0G 0 2.0G 0% /cgroup
/dev/sda8 172G 115G 48G 71% /opt/panlogs

tmpfs is indeed full.

All the usual recommendations around full disk are about other partitions.

Anybody seen similar issues?

Regards,

Andreas

Hi,

Can you try as per below KB.

https://knowledgebase.paloaltonetworks.com/KCSArticleDetail?id=kA10g000000ClaJCAS

try to clean temporary files and not imp files to spare disk usage.

Best Regards,

Suresh

Hi Suresh,

This seems to be a different situation.

Normal file systems are fine.

It is just a problem with tmpfs

@idelconsulting

You might need to open tac case for this as they might need to delete some files from root

@idelconsulting

Also this should not cause any performance issues on the PA.

Are you experiencing any issue on PA due to this?

Seems tmpfs is a temporary partition in PA.

Try a reboot

Hi MP18,

I have a TAC case open but so far not much info.

Initially these messages disappeared after a while, but today they resurfaced.

Seems to be kind of a pattern.

Not sure about the impact:

Will ask TAC again what exactly this means and the possible impact: Not enough space to load conent to SHM

Hi,

I have a TAC case open but so far didn't receive any details about the potential impact.

initially the messages disappeared, but resurfaced again today.

Seems to be some kind of a pattern.

I'll chase TAC for the possible impact.

Re: SYSTEM ALERT : high : Not enough space to load conent to SHM after upgrading PA820 to PanOS 10

idelconsulting — Tue, 09 Feb 2021 21:07:01 GMT

Quick update:

After upgrading to 10.0.4 these messages didn't come up again.

But I still didn't receive any update from TAC regarding a possible operational impact.

Looks like a typo. I assume it should say content and not conent.

Unfortunately unclear which content and what is the impact.

Andreas

Hi,

Was there any conclusion from TAC regarding these message, impact and/or solution?

Re: SYSTEM ALERT : high : Not enough space to load conent to SHM after upgrading PA820 to PanOS 10

idelconsulting — Sun, 28 Mar 2021 21:02:38 GMT

TAC was saying that this could happen if new signatures are deployed while reports are still being generated depending on older signatures.

So basically the older signatures are kept around while the reports are generated and these are filling up the space.
