L3 Networker

the customer find the panorama could not push new config file to firewall,
check the disk space,find the opt/pancfg space avail is 0.
so they reference aritcal kb,clear some file in the opt/pancfg.
include :
GUI: Panorama > Software => Delete the old software which is unused by using the "x" button on the last column
GUI: Panorama > Dynamic Updates => Similar procedure. Delete the old, unused "antivirus", "app and threats" and "wildfire" images.
GUI: Panorama > Device Deployment > Software => Delete the old images.
GUI: Panorama > Device Deployment > Dynamic Updates => Delete the old and unused antivirus and other images.

you can opt to store less config versions and config backups to free up space, but then you have to ask the question: which is more important, backups or empty space 😉

 

in Panorama > Setup > Management > Logging and Reporting Settings > Log Export an Reporting, you can decrease the default 100 versions and 100 backups

hi reaper:

thanks your replay, but  

1:How can I confirm how many backup configurations and versions take up most of OPT / pancfg space

2:if set Number of Versions for Config Audit  50        

              Number of Versions for Config Backups  50      

that can free up space in opt/pancfg ?

There is a CLI command to reduce the disk quota for device monitoring e.g.

>debug management-server device-monitoring disk-quota set size <size>

 

It might not be available on some older PanOS.

 

PanOS 10.2 provides a new command which lets you see the pancfg disk usage in detail:

>show system pancfg-directory-usage
