In what partition is PANOS stored?

L4 Transporter

Where are the PANOS images stored on the hard disk & how much storage space is allocated for the images?

The PANOS images are stored under /opt/pancfg  directory

You can use the command

>show system disk-space

to look at how much space is left.

admin@41-PA-4020(active)> show system disk-space

Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on

/dev/sda2             3.8G  1.5G  2.1G  42% /

/dev/sda5             7.6G  2.2G  5.0G  31% /opt/pancfg

/dev/sda6             3.8G  2.6G  1.1G  71% /opt/panrepo

tmpfs                 506M   67M  439M  14% /dev/shm

/dev/sda8              51G  567M   48G   2% /opt/panlogs

Thank you very much.  That's the command I was using.  I just didn't know where the PANOS images were stored. 

Kind regards,

Jeff

The PanOS images will actually be downloaded to '/opt/panrepo' partition.

This can be confirmed by downloading a software release, checking disk-space, and then deleting the release:

> request system software download version 5.0.4

> show system disk-space

Notice panrepo changes by 185MB which is roughly same size as the image file. The size for panrepo partition itself will vary for each platform.
